This is a very beautiful church and the view from the bell tower is fantastic. The tiled roof is gorgeous and very unusual. Ask about the black tower, it's an interesting story and the staff will be glad to tell you all about it.
Beautiful church with exquisite tile roof and unique interior color scheme, unlike any we have seen in Europe (though we have of course not seen everything). Colors tend toward the tan and gold, with soft jewel tones as accents. Nice collection of art and artifacts...More
We climbed to the top and the view was incredible. However, the stairs are pretty steep, plentiful, and there is no handrail. Going down is actually a lot harder than going up! But the view was beautiful and well worth it!
