Review by James PatersonSubmitted on May 5th, 2012 at 10:30 amGreat if you like old walls. To be honest you get a nicer view walking around the outside, there is hardly anything to look around inside, there is a little tower you can go up to see the cathedral, but other than that, its a bit empty. The gift shop has many things that kids would like... but its ridiculously expensive, so best to just send an adult in to buy the overpriced tickets!
