Jesuit Missions
|
|
The Jesuit Missions in Bolivia remain in time as an extraordinary legacy because they are the only Jesuit missions in South America which were not destroyed after the Jesuits were expulsed from the Spanish colonies. The real jewel (for us) is Santa Ana, which church was built after the Jesuits were already expulsed from the region. Tours start at 1 day or more.
