Church and monastery from the 16th century.

Located in the Old Town of Arequipa. it's about a ten minute stroll ,roughly northwards, from the Cathedral. Another beautiful historical building with a plaza in front of the church. Another must see for lovers of architecture and history and of course the Christian faith. Highly Recommended!
