Peru - Arequipa
La Compaņia

This was the main church of the Jesuits when they came to Peru and Arequipa. You just must not miss a visit into this church. Inside you will find carved volcanic stone arcades and beautiful painted chapels. The highlight inside is the very specially decorated Ignasius chapel, and I hope you will enjoy the visit there as much as I did, even if they were renovating at the moment.
