Candelária combines a monumental facade, large dome, marble, paintings and richly decorated interiors.
The dome, high altar, Italian marble and interior paintings.
History
Its origins are linked to a small chapel built by Spanish sailors in the 17th century. The current building was developed and expanded over subsequent centuries.
My tip
Do not stop at the facade. If open, enter and observe the dome from the centre of the nave. During weddings or masses, wait respectfully before taking photos.
