The contrast: The church impresses with the extreme contrast between its simple, white adobe facade (Adobe) on the outside and the unimaginable gold and splendor-richness on the inside. The art treasures: Inside, there are Baroque altars lavishly decorated with gold leaf, intricate Mudéjar-style carvings, and famous paintings by the Escuela Cusqueña (Cusco School).
