MISSION OF SAN MIGUEL DE VELASCO

Considered as the jewel of the Missions missions. Built by Martin Schmidt's disciples in 1721 and completely restored since then. There is a small craft craft workshop where Indians continue to exercise their art.

If you have little time, we recommend that you purchase a «turnkey tower» in a Santa Cruz (Totaitu or Uimpex) or La Paz agency. It is even possible to start with Viru Viru airport, without going through Santa Cruz. If you have time or a small budget, you can travel by bus. Find out at the terminal, if you wish to go beyond Concepción (towards San Ignacio, Santa Ana or San Rafael): buses go so far only if the state of the road permits (in Santa Cruz: Flota Chiquitana). Departures every day at 6 am from the bus terminal. At each step, take a ticket for the next city). If you only have a few days, the missions of San Javier and Concepcion (2-day circuit) will give you a good idea of the missions.
