Last week, we went in the historical center of the city. We decided to go visiting some of the churches. We went in " La Eglesia de la Compania de Jesus", which is one of the most beautiful church in the Americas. It is one of the most visited monument in Quito. It took 160 years to construct the Church! When you enter in it, you can see how much extravagant and beauty is the church.
7 tonnes of gold leafs at 23 carat have been necessary to cover the entirety of this religious decor. This was the real opulence!
