Officially the "Real and Renowned Basilica Cathedral of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary", it's more typically referred to as simply the León Cathedral. Probably the most recognized structure in the city, but the rooftop is where the best shots exist. Just make sure to go early (opens at 8am) to beat the hot Nicaraguan sun. #Nicaragua #Leon #Cathedral
