This is a real treat.... getting to visit the Saint Dominic Convent built in 1530... I'm standing in one of the ancient windows.
The artwork is so beautiful everywhere.
The Gardens are so peaceful....
I can almost hear the whispers of ancient robes of the prayerful. Look at the right side see the stone basin filled with water and rose petals? These are everywhere and to help the air remain fragrent always.
Parts of towers, altars, pillars and buildings are still intact here.
This fountain is orginal and STILL WORKING!
This is the entrance to a crypt below ground that still have remains laid out for viewing.
The Bridal entrance to the church.
Services are held here weekly.
What a special place.... and a real honor to get to visit it. Guatemala has a treasure everyone should see!
