The most breathtaking church. Creatively inspiring and stunning. The opening time is a little odd, just make sure you go early and start your day in Candelaria here.
A uniquely decorated church in an easy to access neighborhood. Well worth a stop if you like this kind of architecture.
Beautiful church that looks like it is made from candy canes. The pillars look like they are made from candy. So vibrant and colorful it really matches the vibe of Bogota. There was a wedding going on when we visited, bonus!
Magnificent! looks like a fanciful wedding cake from the outside and the interior is a joy. Calm blues, floral stained glass windows, moorish archways, murals, paintings, tiles …. just so nice 👏🏼
Beautiful church! We were only able to see it from the outside as it was closed both times we went. The posted times online were not accurate. We asked a guard when it was open and we were told only for services, but not given any times.
