Schnelle Fakten: The cathedral houses over 400 artworks, including some from famous colonial painters, making it a vibrant museum as well as a place of worship. Its construction involved stones taken from nearby Inca ruins, blending Inca and Spanish history in every wall.

Highlights: Visitors can see the famed 'Last Supper' painting featuring a guinea pig as the main dish, a unique twist reflecting local culture. The cathedral's intricately carved wooden choir stalls, adorned with biblical scenes and native motifs, reveal a fascinating fusion of European and Andean artistry.

Insidertipps

  • Wear comfortable shoes as floors are uneven in some parts.
  • Photography is allowed but avoid flash to protect artworks.
  • Head to the rooftop for panoramic views of the city and surrounding mountains.
  • Visit on a weekday morning to avoid large tour groups.
