Госпиталь де ла Каридад: Билеты

We arrived a bit early, a few minutes before opening, and they didn't let us in; we had to wait for a bit. The audio guide was excellent; it's definitely worth using.

It’s a nice little hospital but it’s fairly small and the tour can be done in an hour. It does feel more like a church than a hospital though as the main room is a fairly large chapel but it’s really beautiful inside.
You can have the option of using an audio guide which I definitely recommend, especially in the chapel. With it, you learn about the meanings of the different paintings (and they really are well thought out) as well as all about the founder, Miguel de Mañara.
The staff working there are very friendly and welcoming. You can really tell that they are so appreciative of the visits and that makes me glad I went. There is also a cute little gift shop as you leave.
Definitely something to do that is cheaper than a lot of other activities and for anyone interested in the work they do. You also don’t have to fight the crowds of the cathedral to still see some great religious imagery.
