A church whose roofs offer the most beautiful view of the imperial city

Built in 1726, it stands on the site of a church built in 1552. The cloister contains admirable and gigantic paintings by Melchor Pérez de Holguín as well as a small museum of sacred art. We also visit the small catacombs. The highlight of the visit is the climb to the roofs of the church, which offer the most beautiful view of the imperial city. Be careful, because the stairs are very narrow, but you will be rewarded for this little "risk". Not to be missed.

C'est sûrement l'une de nos plus belles visites en Bolivie, et de plus c'est très peu visité , on était seulement 3 personnes, donc on a demandé la version anglaise. La visite est à 20Bs: cloitre, peintures religieuses, presbytère, église pour nous tout seul, 2 cryptes "garnis" du plus bel effet, et surtout montée sur les toit par d'étroit passage et une vue à couper le souffle 4090m d'altitude Potosi (plus avec les toits).
Visite pleine et instructive et de toute beauté, à conseiller.
