Iglesia Matriz San Pedro de Cañar
Najlepší čas na návštevu
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.
Tipy na rozpočet
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.
Odporúčané pre
Lovers of Baroque art, Photographers looking for different shots, Families with children, Travelers eager for local customs

O
Rýchle fakty: Cédrový oltár vo vnútri žiari pozlátkou v deviatich vrstvách, dokonca aj keď horia len sviece. Sakristia ukrýva 46 strieborných kalichov, z ktorých najstarší nesie vyrytý rok 1652 a má viac ako 370 rokov.
Zaujímavosti: Pred zberom kukurice farníci tri dni zapaľujú po 33 sviec pred sochou patróna, zvyk zapísaný v matrikách už v 18. storočí. Zo západnej bočnej kaplnky sa otvára jedinečný pohľad na terasy, ktoré vytesali predkovia, a v jesenných lúčoch sa všetko odieva do zlata.
Insiderské tipy
- 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.
