Main Square and Temple

The Main Square boasts a lovely, wrought iron gazebo that is over a century old. Spend a little while in this square and glimpse the daily to and fro of the locals. On one side is the Sagrado Corazón de Jesús temple, also called San Juan de Carapoa, and dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. This church was a Jesuit mission in the 18th century and features a beautiful pink limestone front and an imposing spire-topped bell tower.
