After a bit of a delay due to technical problems, here is the blog post!
After tours of exploring the outdoors of Costa Rica, the group came back to town to do a little shopping and headed to a locally popular church beforehand. It was a charming church with beautiful architecture and grand displays of interior beauty. It was similar to churches and cathedrals I had been to before with stained glass windows and chandeliers. However, the difference was the views outside and the different area set aside for worshiping. There is a picture below of a scene with light shining in an open window. All churches and cathedrals I have visited in the world are a bit different in how they decorate small areas every few steps to walk and dedicate to the saint of one's choice, or even light a candle with a prayer. This church had a scene of the baby Jesus and the Virgin Mary in the center of what was in the shape of a church with smaller statues of different figures encircling the center. There was a tiny chandelier hanging from the ceiling. It was the most unique area of the church. Take a look at the images below and experience a bit more of the culture of Costa Rica...
