Review:
The Basilica of San Francisco in La Paz, Bolivia is a Catholic church that can be found right in the center of the city. It was originally founded in 1549, but the church took nearly thirty years to build and was finally completed in 1772. The Andean Baroque, or baroque mestizo, style architecture of the building is a visual display of the artistic movement that appeared and spread around the 17th century. A part of the church and convent was converted into a museum and is filled with exhibits and artifacts for visitors to peruse and learn about the history of the church as well as La Paz.
