Especially the outside of the building is fascinating, I couldn't get enough from looking up to all that beautiful stonework. The modern altar is unusual and impressive.

Amazing views! Breath taking! Great place to take some great pictures of the town. The only little thing the air is very thin due to the altitude so it can be difficult for some people to breath.

Parroquia de Nuestra Senora de Fatima

Reviewed By Cartagena2019 - Cartagena, Colombia

This beautiful church was started in in 1950s but only finished in 2000 due to lack of funding, when it was consecrated. It was built in Gothic style and made of fabulous local orange pink stone. As the church is not so close to the centre, try to combine with a visit to the Francisco Goitia museum which originally was the residence of governors. It is only two minuets walk from Fatima church.
