|  | This island is where the city started One of the most revered cathedrals in the world, it has had its ups and downs over the 700 years it has been utilized. Starting as a church, during the dark years, it became a desecrated building, getting no respect. it revived again to become the famed one it is today. |

Boat rides, and buses promote this heavily so you get a chance to see it in regalia. The city really lights up the wonderful monuments in the evening. |
