An in gold foil wrapped homage to god! Built between 1605 and 1765 by the Jesuits, this church hides behind its baroque facade of volcanic stone an abundance of splendor that seems to be completely covered with no less than seven seven tons of gold leaf! In addition to the many paintings and statues, the imposing church choir, the elaborately decorated pulpit and the sarcophagus with the remains of Mariana de Jesus, the patron saint of Ecuador, are the most important art treasures of this overwhelming church.

This was a fascinating the place to visit. We were able to get onto the roof of the church and take some photographs of the surrounding area. The one showing the courtyard is of the old Jesuit University.

very impressive church, even for european standard. it is possible to have a free guide. Our guide was a student who speaks 4 languaves and the explanation he gave us was very interesting. nice visit!!!

The church itself is quite beautiful in all its extravagant splendor. However, foreigners are charged a cover price of 5 USD per person - and if you charge foreigners twice what you charge locals, I feel that you should at least go through the trouble of translating your signs and descriptions into English. Literally everything is only in Spanish once you get it. Also, no photos are allowed inside - flash or not. I don't really understand this rule. There's not that much to see apart from the actual church itself, so the visit is over quick

Free guide is provided. They are volunteers from students studying in tourism industry. Lots of wonder of the architecture achievement on the structure.
