Both trips to Madrid's Palace met official events that had been impossible to visit. The Cathedral of Notre Dame of Amudna was visited twice. If you remember correctly, you don't need money to visit the cathedral until you go upstairs. The church is a Baroque architectural style, 104 meters long, 76 meters wide, the diameter of the central dome can reach more than 20 meters, the interior decoration is very modern, giving a fresh feeling. It was officially opened in 1993 under the consecration of Pope John Paul II, and became the latest Cathedral in Europe. The primitive image of the Virgin Mother of Amudna was enshrined in the chapel on the west side of the cathedral. Felipe, the first heir to the Spanish throne and now King of Spain, married in the church in 2004.

    The Cathedral of the Virgin of Amudena, 300 meters south of the Palace of Madrid, is the youngest and most popular of the many churches in Madrid. The Spanish capital moved from Toledo to Madrid in 1561, but the church center remained in Toledo. The plan to build a main church in the new capital was not implemented until 1879, more than 300 years later. The impact of the war, the design changes, stopped construction, and officially completed in June 1993, became the latest main church in Europe. The magnificent appearance of Baroque style, white + gray plain facade, echoes and mirrors the formal palace. In 2004, the grand wedding of Crown Prince Philip of Spain (currently King Philip VI of Spain) was held here, which made the church more impressive and famous worldwide.

    The spectacular and simple Church of the Virgin of Amudna is next to the palace, the auditorium of King Felipe VI's wedding to the Queen. The white and gray exterior walls are outlined in Phnom Penh, which is very dignified.

    Go to the Cathedral of the Virgin of Amudna, be sure to pay attention to the nearby thief Oh, my friend's mobile phone was almost stolen, and I realized the speed of the three hands here for the first time! But the church building is still very solemn and spectacular. Entering it, someone is doing a service. It feels more sacred. The ice cream near the Ps church tastes very good.

    The Cathedral of Notre Dame of Amudna was an unexpected discovery to me. It had not been planned to be here, but when I was looking at the palace, I had no intention of walking there, because it was just opposite the Palace's Arms Square. The appearance has been very beautiful, and only after entering it can we find its magnificence. It's really great! It is worth recommending.

    The Madrid Palace has activities that are not open, and I went here temporarily. The surprise + worthwhile trip (the church is free, the museum is 6€, and the platform can see the panoramic view of the palace.) Both the exterior and the interior are very beautiful, even if you see the church, you still have a sense of aesthetic fatigue. The postcards bought inside are also surprisingly good-looking!

    It's also a beautiful Catholic church with magnificent appearance and magnificent interior. It's interesting that it doesn't open the main door, but it opens the side door. It's the main altar on the back side. I don't know why, but it seldom happens like this.

    A typical Iberian Gothic building, magnificent. Probably because of the royal church, the interior decoration is relatively simple compared to other Spanish churches. When I went there, I happened to meet the large mass held during Christmas, personally hosted by the archbishop of Madrid, and a church in Noble was full of people and visitors could listen.
