How difficult it is to photograph its 7,700-metre surface area! Being surrounded by monumental buildings, it is not easy to get a complete picture of Plaza del Obradoiro. From the portal of Colegio de San Xerome, using a wide-angle lens, you get a picture of the Cathedral (including the cloister and its complete towers) followed by Gelmírez Palace, the Hostal de los Reyes Católicos opposite and Rajoy Palace on the left.
Now, the best pictures are those taken from above: the balconies of the Cathedral Museum, the University Chancellor's Office ou o Hostal dos Reis Católicos... and, of course, the Cathedral rooftops.
