The Cathedral of Monteria City

The Cathedral of Montería 

The construction of this cathedral is a fusion of Gothic and Republican style and beyond a place of worship is a pleasant space, fresh and full of peace. Around you will find kiosks of natural juices, places to drink coffee or benches to sit down to "watch the world go by" while observing everyday life, the boy who makes a bracelet and goes to sleep, the university girls who consult their cell phone under the shadow of a handle, the pride with which the embolador removes luster to loafers, or the agility with which they dance on the keys of an Olivetti the fingers of a "tinterillo" that exerts like lawyer of poor people and writes diverse documents for his busied clients .

In front of the cathedral, in the street 27 with second, is the park Simón Bolívar with its respective monument equal and different to all the other thousand monuments to Simón Bolivar that exist, with their streams of water rumorosa and their mango sticks full of birds.

Around the cathedral there are trees and palm trees, some iguanas that take advantage of the shadows to rest and rest the heat. In the entrance, oblivious to the ceremony, the crowding of pigeons inflates and deflates as people pass by their side and some are already so accustomed that they escape from the miraculous stomps.

The Cathedral of San Jerónimo de Montería is the most beautiful church in the city and it is inevitable not to be admired with its beauty and its combination of architectures that invite tranquility, tranquility and almost almost religious devotion. You can enter, it will be well received, the shadows, the central nave with its stained glass windows and its whitewashed walls will help you to feel a little closer to the sacred and much farther from the heat.
