If you do the terraces,THERE ARE LOTS OF STEPS
Really worth a visit and absolutely beautiful, if you book a terraces ticket, it’s not at all clear on the website or when you arrive that there’s a VERY long winding narrow climb up hundreds of steps to get up there. U need to be fit! It should be made clearer so wanted to put this review to make people aware. Views are amazing and worth it but the tickets are very expensive for the terraces so if you’re in a budget consider getting the cheaper tickets for just the cathedral which is beautiful and then get the bus up to Bellver castle which has equally good views of the city.

Stunning Cathedral
I paid the 20 euros price to get entry and access to the galleries, which seeing the queues outside i was glad i did as we went straight through and into the cathedral. It seems so much bigger inside than it looks from the outside even though from outside it appears massive, once you step inside it seems to reach epic proportions. The way up to the galleries is on a very narrow steep spiral staircase of around 160 steps which are really not suitable for anyone with any difficulties in mobility, the views from atop the cathedral over the city and the harbour are stunning, as is the view towards the mountains and Bellver castle. Once back on the ground the walk around the cathedral's many chapels is a walk back in time to a period when christianity was at its peak and money was no object to devotion, the amount of time and money spent on these chapels is incredible. However the one chapel which stands out the most is the newest one by Miquel Barcelo, it looks completely different to all the other sin the cathedral but it is this difference which makes it so impressive
