Visited the Church of St. Sebastian and St Francis of Assisi after our tour of the Teatro Amazonas (Amazon Theater). The church is nothing like the ones you see in Europe but its simplicity gives the church a special quality. On the walls and ceiling, there are many elegant frescoes as well as a patchwork of light-colored marble pillars and several colorful icons. The stained-glass windows are a sight to behold as is the blue-domed ceiling. A unique feature is the main altar which has a pedestal with two marble hands supporting it. If you go, be sure to look up at the domed ceiling and the crystal chandeliers. The church has only one bell tower because the second one was in the original design but never built. It’s important to be considerate of worshippers and not to be to aggressive taking photos. You don’t have to be Catholic to appreciate this church.
