O znamenitosti
Hitre informacije: Stolnica je bila posvečena leta 1928 in sprejme do 2000 vernikov. Po izbruhu državljanske vojne leta 1991 je bila močno poškodovana, vendar njene gotske fasade še vedno prevladujejo v panorami mesta.
Poudarki: Streha stolnice je še danes posejana s sledovi krogel iz državljanske vojne, ki na soncu ustvarjajo nežno lesketajoče se srebrne pike v kamniti fasadi. Lokalni muslimanski ribiči jo uporabljajo kot orientacijsko točko ob vrnitvi z morja in si pripovedujejo zgodbe o tem, kako so jim nekoč njeni zvonovi pomagali najti pot domov.
Notranji nasveti
- Sturdy shoes are a must: the floor is covered with rubble and sharp stones.
- The best photo is from the opposite hill facing the ocean, where the cathedral is in its full glory.
- Arrange a local escort, the area is unguarded and moving around this part of town requires caution.
- Bring your own water, there are no shops or stalls in the area.
