NICARAGUA, EXPLORING the historic CATHEDRAL of GRANADA and its DISNEY-LIKE MURALS ⛪
SUBSCRIBE: - Let's go visit the magnificent Our Lady of the Assumption Cathedral also called Granada Cathedral is a neoclassical Catholic cathedral located in Granada, Nicaragua. The Spanish colonial Granada Cathedral dominates the south-eastern side of Parque Central. You can’t miss it. Two bell towers face the square, with the main dome over the altar at the opposite end. The current version of the building that you see now as largely complete by about 1915. The inside is not the most ornate of the old city’s Catholic cathedrals. In fact, it’s relatively sparsely decorated. But what it lacks in crammed-to-the-rafters lavishness it makes up for in scale and a sense of space and calm. The nave is expansive and spacious.
The main altar piece is a strikingly beautiful arrangement of a statue of Mary surrounded by silver and backed by bright blue mosaic tiles. Spaced around the interior are a number of statues depicting religious figures and other religious artwork. And off to one side is a small but pretty little white chapel.
Nicaragua, set between the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea, is a Central American nation known for its dramatic terrain of lakes, volcanoes and beaches. Vast Lake Managua and the iconic stratovolcano Momotombo sit north of the capital Managua. To its south is Granada, noted for its Spanish colonial architecture and an archipelago of navigable islets rich in tropical bird life.

NICARAGUA: EXPLORING the COLOURFUL, HISTORIC CHURCHES of LEON ⛪
SUBSCRIBE: - Let's visit the Nicaraguan city of León which has many historical and cultural treasures, such as museums and monuments, as well as a number of architecturally significant churches (which we will see in this video), with El Calvario, Sutiava, La Merced, San Francisco, and La Recolección being among the most noteworthy. Located on Calle de los Bancos (Bank Street), the Recolección church (which we will see in the video) dates back to 1786, and it is notable for its dark yellow Mexican baroque style façade and is an easily recognized landmark in the area. Intricate columns decorate the church and the bell and clock tower add to its charm.
Nicaragua, set between the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea, is a Central American nation known for its dramatic terrain of lakes, volcanoes and beaches. Vast Lake Managua and the iconic stratovolcano Momotombo sit north of the capital Managua.

Granada In Touch
What better way to get in touch with a city than to explore on foot. Spend the morning walking to key historic sites including the San Francisco museum, which provides a great background on Granada history, the El Merced with its tower view of the entire city and the grand Cathedral, an architectural delight. Take a sneak peek behind the magnificent doors of Granada with an insider's visit to a renovated colonial home. Spend time people watching at the Central Park, the hub of Granada activity, where you'll board a horse drawn carriage for a leisurely ride along the shores of Lake Nicaragua.
