This afternoon I checked out Madrid's basilica, which they began constructing in 1879 and completed in 1993. (And you thought your kitchen reno took forever!). The interior is impressive, although since it's so modern it seems like it might be lacking some of the character of other basilicas. (Basilicae?). BUT, the statues, especially those surrounding the dome, were breathtaking, especially when set against the skyline. It was so worth climbing all those stairs! :)
