Day 3, sightseeing in the morning in Zaragoza. We visited the Cathedral of El Pilar.
It is reputed to be the first church dedicated to Mary in history.
Local guide explaining the history to us.
Love the architecture designs of the buildings.
Plaza del Pilar is the largest pedestrian plaza in the European Union. It is also called Plaza de las Catedrales (in English: Plaza of the Cathedrals), because it has the two cathedrals of Zaragoza. (source)

Mary on top of the column
At the back of the altar is a niche which exposes a small, worn, bit of the stone pillar where we can touch the column.
Watch the video where the guide explaining the history of the column.
The cathedral is very beautiful.
The bronze horse statue Caballito De La Lonja is located at the base of the Lonja de Zaragoza in Zaragoza, Spain.
The lion statues at Stone Bridge in Zaragoza, Spain are the symbols and guarding the city of Zaragoza.
