Iglesia Matriz San Pedro de Cañar
Najbolje vrijeme za posjet
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.
Savjeti za budžet
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.
Preporučeno za
Lovers of Baroque art, Photographers looking for different shots, Families with children, Travelers eager for local customs

O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: Cedrov oltar u unutrašnjosti svijetli pozlatom u devet slojeva čak i kad gore samo svijeće. Sakristija skriva 46 srebrnih kaleža od kojih najstariji nosi ugraviranu godinu 1652. i star je više od 370 godina.
Istaknuto: Prije žetve kukuruza župljani tri dana pale po 33 svijeće pred kipom zaštitnika, običaj upisan u matične knjige još u 18. stoljeću. U zapadnoj bočnoj kapeli pruža se jedinstven pogled na terase što su ih preci isklesali, pa se u jesenjim zracima sve oblači u zlatno.
Insajderski savjeti
- 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.
