If you're a lover of religious architecture, this tour of the churches of Cochabamba will take you to discover the most beautiful churches of the Bolivian city.

Cochabamba Churches Tour

We'll meet at the Plaza de Colón at the appointed time to begin this tour of the most important churches of the metropolitan axis of Cochabamba, including districts such as Tiquipaya and Quillacollo.

The tour starts with a visit to the exterior of the Cathedral of San Sebastian, where we will admire its portico of Corinthian columns and pointed rose window. We will learn about the history of this temple before stopping at the parish church of San Miguel de Tiquipaya, known for its two-coloured façade and stepped bell tower.

Next, we move to the outskirts to visit the church of Santiago Apóstol de El Paso, exploring its importance to the community, and then proceed to Quillacollo.

In Quillacollo, we'll first visit the cathedral of San Ildefonso, located in a quiet square, where we'll review the four centuries of history of this basilica.

Finally, we will go to the sanctuary of the Virgin of Urkupiña, where we will discuss the religious legend related to the Virgen María Asunta to conclude the tour.

After a four-hour tour, we will return to the starting point.
