O
Rýchle fakty: This 16th-century church houses a museum of colonial religious art with over 300 pieces. Its bell tower was one of the first structures visible to travelers arriving in Cali during the colonial era.
Zaujímavosti: A secret tunnel once connected the church to the nearby San Antonio hill, used by priests as an escape route during pirate attacks. The tunnel was rediscovered in the 1990s during a construction project and remnants are still visible today.
Insiderské tipy
- Don't miss the small Museo de Arte Religioso upstairs, which holds golden altarpieces and paintings dating back four centuries.
- The best photo spot is from the courtyard looking up at the bell tower against the blue sky.
- Combine your visit with a walk through the adjacent Plazoleta de la Merced for a broader feel of colonial Cali.
- Watch for the original wooden ceiling beams in the main chapel, carved without modern tools.

Robil som tieto prehliadky v desiatkach miest a boli vrcholom takmer každej cesty. Ak navštívite Cali, Colombia, urobte to v prvý deň. Poďakujete mi neskôr.
