This is a breathtaking example of baroque. Standing outside does not really prepare you for what lies within. Whatever your personal view about baroque, this church will make an impact. For the relatively small entrance fee, this is a must for those interested in churches and indeed anyone who wants to see something that is really rather overwhelming. More

While their is a fee to enter and take photos, it is a beautiful church and worth seeing. The staff wasn't very hospitable to tourists, which is the only thing I did not care for in our visit. More
