Andahuaylillas San Pedro Ceiling -


The San Pedro de Andahuaylillas church due to the quality of its works of art is considered the "Sistine Chapel" of America.
It was built by the Jesuits in the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries. Its architectural structure is classic of small-town churches. Its walls are wide, typical of colonial buildings, made of sun-dried mud bricks, a façade adorned with murals, and two stone columns projecting toward the main gate. Although its architecture is relatively modest, the decoration of its interiors is the most impressive feature of the building.
