Catedral Metropolitana de Santiago de Chile

The Catedral Metropolitana de Santiago de Chile is one of the most important religious monuments in the country. Built in the late 18th Century in a Neo-Classical style, it is the seat of the Archbishopric of Santiago and the mother church of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Santiago de Chile. The cathedral is filled with impressive works of art and features a main altar adorned with detailed paintings, sculptures, and carvings. The interior is spacious, allowing for a wonderful view of the church from the outside. It is also home to the Church of San Francisco, a small chapel dedicated to San Francisco de Asís, which is located in the rear of the cathedral. The nearby plaza is also a popular spot for locals to congregate and stroll through, and is a great spot to take a break from sightseeing.
