O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: 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.
Istaknuto: 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.
Insajderski saveti
- 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.

Da li ste čuli za besplatne šetnje?
Nakon putovanja u preko 30 zemalja, postoji jedna stvar koju bih voleo da mi je neko rekao od prvog dana, a koja je potpuno promenila način na koji doživljavam nove gradove.
Besplatne šetnje. Da, zaista besplatne. Nije potrebna kreditna kartica. Nema skrivenih uslova.
Lokalni vodič, 2-3 sata
Glavne znamenitosti, skriveni dragulji, lokalne priče
100% zasnovano na napojnicama
Vodiči zarađuju samo napojnice, zato daju svoj maksimum
Napojnicu ostavljate koliko želite
Na kraju ostavite napojnicu koliko smatrate da je prikladno
Radio sam ove ture u desetinama gradova i bile su vrhunac skoro svakog putovanja. Ako posećujete Cali, Colombia, uradite to prvog dana. Zahvalićete mi kasnije.
