You're standing at El Pilar, the great Basilica of Our Lady of the Pillar in Zaragoza. Start by looking at the four great bell towers, and then at all the domes in between. There are eleven of them. This is one of the few big cathedrals in Spain built entirely in the Baroque style. In front of it lies a huge square, where pilgrims hold their celebrations. You can even spot the building from the nearby river Ebro.
