With this guided tour of the Convent Museum of Santa Teresa, you will learn about one of the oldest religious monuments in Cochabamba.

Description

At the designated time, we will meet at the Plaza de Colón and walk to the Convent of Santa Teresa, established in 1760. This baroque-style monastery has been home to the Discalced Carmelite Sisters since its founding and serves as a key example of the area's architectural and cultural heritage.

The tour will guide us through various sections of the convent-museum, highlighting its solemn atmosphere. We will view the mural paintings located in several rooms and explore the church, where we can appreciate religious artworks preserved on the main altar, including a central altarpiece with gold leaf decorations.

Additionally, we will walk through the cloister, featuring a stone arcade. After approximately 2 hours of exploration, we will conclude the tour and depart from the exit.
