Burgos 8

Some stairways in the cathedral are very ornate. The second picture shows a large silver sculpture that is used in the Corpus Christe parade each year. The marble holy water fountains are about three feet across.

Most of the cathedral is made of limestone. The stronger parts are walnut covered in gold. They have been doing construction for the last 20 years. The last picture shows an area that has extensive damage to the limestone.
