The Compañía represents the most complete form of 16th-century architecture. It is in the mixed baroque style of the Arequipa school and, together with the Cathedral of Puno, is its finest achievement. The lateral façade of worked stone shows Santiago (Saint James) in a characteristic attitude of killer of Moors. Don't forget to visit the sublime Capilla de San Ignacio with its polychrome dome entirely covered with plant, animal and mineral motifs.

Tout près de la plaza de Armas, cette jolie église vaut vraiment le détour. Sa façade est magnifique et je conseille aussi de visiter la petite chapelle payante dont les peintures murales sont splendides. J'aime beaucoup me promener dans les cloîtres (c'est gratuit), et surtout monter à l'étage de l'un des cloîtres, d'où la vue sur les volcans est très belle. C'est très calme. C'est une visite que je recommande avec des enfants.

Inspirée par l'art andin, la façade de cette église est très originale et vraiment superbe.
