May 28, 2021 Etsuko Causey

Drawn by year-round warm weather, colonial-era architecture and the freshwater Lake Nicaragua, travelers from around the world are flocking to Granada. Eco-tourists will love visiting the dormant Mombacho volcano, sailing on the lake and ziplining through the trees. Fans of spa treatments and shopping will find plenty to do, too.

Beautiful Church located right in the heart of the city in Central Park. Free to entry and well worth checking out. Some photos on Trip Advisor are wrong and obviously of the Cathedral in Granada Spain

La Capilla Maria Auxiliadora

Reviewed By 205emilym - Bryan, United States

In my opinion this is the most beautiful church in Granada. It's a quick stop, but well worth it! We walked in on Friday evening mass, so we didn't explore it to the full extent, but the interior is the most intricate we saw in the city.
