On the morning of 20180218 when I am about to leave the Galapagos Islands, the city of Puerto Baquerizo Moreno, the capital of the Galapagos Province of Ecuador with the longest history of human history, is located on San Cristobal Island (and at the same time ending this Lunar New Year holiday in the Galapagos Islands), Take the last 2 hours of city tour to find the central market and the cathedral. This church (the Cathedral of Immaculate Conception) was finally found by me after I wandered around cluelessly for a while. The appearance of the Cathedral of Immaculate Conception is small, and the main vision directly in front of the church is the sculpture of the disciples taking Jesus off the cross. The wood carvings on the door of the church and the paintings on the walls in the church depict the natural geography and animals of the Galapagos Islands, including: Kicker Rock, sea lions, sea birds, etc. The large-scale paintings inside the church present the scene of island towns under the sun or full moon from the sea. At the same time, the eye-catching focal point is that there are many beautiful stained glass windows on the wall on the first floor and the second floor of the facade of the church door and on the wall on the opposite altar. Not only are stained glass, but painted on them. The portraits of religious figures are even more beautiful under the sunshine of the good weather that day. Although it was Sunday 20180218, when I found this church at more than nine o'clock in the morning, the door of the church was open, but no one was doing activities in the church. I don’t have much time. I have to rush to the airport at noon to take a flight. I quickly visited and took pictures before continuing to look for another target central market.
