Hello again Steemians!

I tell you that 1 month ago I traveled to Spain with my family, we only went on vacation for a month. We arrived in the city of Burgos, where we were going to stay. So we started to inform ourselves about the tourist sites and all that, it turns out that one of the most visited tourist sites is the Cathedral of Burgos, so we were already there.

The Cathedral of Burgos is a catholic temple dedicated to the Virgin Mary. Construction began approx. in the year 1221, following a French Gothic pattern and is currently open to receive tourists.

After having observed it well, I was able to enter and see what I had inside, although I only had access to the main part. But I found a peculiarity, a big clock called '' Flycatcher '' which consisted in that every hour, the subject that is with the clock repeatedly opened the mouth which represents that he was eating some flies. Something very strange, is not it?
