Granada Churches: I

I decided to get out early today and visit the churches of Granada.  My first stop was Guadalupe church:

The next Church was San-Francisco

I found both these churches much more interesting from the outside.  I headed for a smoothie to relax in the Garden Cafe a nice respite from the hot city.

Afterward, I headed to the Main Cathedral, known as The Grand Cathedral

The cathedral of Granada is one of the most prominent buildings in the city. It is located at the east side of the central park of Granada (Parque Colón). The neoclassical bell towers and bright orange and yellow paint can be seen for miles around from higher ground. Within the building there are three naves and four chapels that are open to the public most days. The building has been partially destroyed and rebuilt several times since it was first constructed as a parochial church in 1583. The building was completely destroyed by the American William Walker in 1856 during his legendary rampage. The Italian architect Andrés Zappata completed reconstruction sixty years later.
