Iglesia Matriz San Pedro de Cañar
Paras aika vierailla
On Sunday mornings, a visit can best be combined with mass and the opening of the big market, so everything gets done in the same morning. In the early hours, the light through the rose window falls exactly on the altar, which is the most beautiful moment for photographing the interior.
Budjettivinkit
Entry is free all year round, and a donation of one to two dollars is left for candles and maintenance of the bells. At the Sunday market nearby, you will find the cheapest corn bread, so combine shopping with your visit and cover part of your lunch cost.
Suositellaan
Lovers of Baroque art, Photographers looking for different shots, Families with children, Travelers eager for local customs

Tietoa
Nopeat faktat: Setripuinen alttari sisätilassa loistaa yhdeksänkerroksisella kullauksellaan jopa pelkkien kynttilöiden palaessa. Sakristiossa on kätkettynä 46 hopeakalkkia, joista vanhimmassa on kaiverrettu vuosiluku 1652 ja joka on yli 370 vuotta vanha.
Kohokohdat: Ennen maissisadon korjuuta seurakuntalaiset polttavat kolmen päivän ajan 33 kynttilää suojelijan patsaan edessä, tapa, joka on kirjattu kirkonkirjoihin jo 1700-luvulla. Läntisestä sivukappelista avautuu ainutlaatuinen näkymä terasseille, jotka esi-isät ovat veistäneet, ja syksyn valonsäteissä kaikki pukeutuu kultaiseen.
Sisäpiirin vinkit
- Wear comfortable shoes, the stone pavement is slippery in the rainy season, and the bell tower stairs are steep and narrow.
- The best photo is taken from halfway up the bell tower stairs about an hour before sunset, when the rooftops turn red in the last light.
- Skip Wednesday afternoon, as the interior is closed then due to a big cleaning after mass.
- Bring your own bottle of water because there is no fountain in the square, the nearest one is about a ten-minute walk toward the stream.
