The entry fee of 20 BOB is worth it. We had an informative guide take us through the museum, explaining the history of the Cathedral, paintings & St Francis along the way. The cloisters , garden & rooms we visited were very interesting & we got to go up onto the roof of the Cathedral for great views over the square & surrounds.

A three-hour tour takes you into the daily lives of the nuns who inhabited this convent beginning in 1691 and shows you galleries filled with art, antiques and hand-painted porcelain dishes.

Joined a very informative (spanish) tour that lasted for a good 1.5 hours. Fascinating convent. Beautifully restored. Lots of history. The nuns now live in a building next door. You can by coffee and sweets that they make in the cafe downstairs and there is also a gift shop.

Architecture buffs will appreciate these two buildings: the convent for its outstanding example of 16th-century religious architecture and the church for its symbolic cupolas. A walk around the grounds reveals incredible catacombs and beautiful colonial art.

This Church, nice to visit if you manage to understand how to join a guided tour (erratic opening hours) is interesting but the main attraction is the roof where you can spend 20 minutes and get the best views of Potosi and Cerro Rico. Not to be missed. It is only two blocks from the main square.

Before leaving Copacabana you have to go up there, the walk is hard but worth the view. You cant forget...you have to leave a stone in the top on one of the status for good luck. Take as many Pictures as you can...this place is for far the best view you will get.
