Today, our entire group trekked around the city of Santiago and visited five different Catholic churches. Among those churches were Iglesia San Francisco, Basilica y Museo de la Merced, Iglesia de Santo Domingo, Catedral Metropolitana and Iglesia San Agustín. My group researched Iglesia San Agustín. With the building being finished in 1625, there were a ton of artwork and carvings throughout the church. My favorite part of the church was the ceiling. The ceiling was adorned with saints and many other aspects of the Catholic religion.
