The Church and Monastery of St. Francis

The Church and Monastery of St. Francis is normally known as El San Francisco. It is a 16th century Roman Catholic complex in Quito, Ecuador. It fronts onto its namesake Plaza de San Francisco. The forming structure has the refinement of being the biggest compositional group among the recorded structures of pioneer Latin America and consequently is infrequently known as "El Escorial of the New World".

The style advanced over right around 150 years of development through seismic tremors and changes in masterful design. The Church houses the city's adored Virgin of Quito. You can visit, explore and experience this place.
