The abbey of Santa Catalina in Arequipa, Peru, is still a small detail of the abbey, which is generally divided into blue and red areas, and the blue areas will be slightly larger with their own kitchen and garden, and the nuns who once lived here are more noble, some with maids to care for. The abbey itself is like a small labyrinth garden, you don't have to go to any attractions to take pictures, it is a surprise to walk casually, and the public areas are also beautiful. It is also one of the largest monasteries in the world, and perhaps due to the long colonial years, the architecture itself blends Spanish romance and South American beauty to create this beautiful and chic little world.

    Santa Catalina Monastery is the main attraction for travel to the city. The monastery is relatively large and the building is quite old. Although I don't know much about religion, the introduction of the night pot can still feel the piety of locals for their religious beliefs.

    This convent is enormous, almost like a small village within a city. There is a lot of interesting history here and if you believe in this, the energy is very strong here. I would say that this is the most worth it place to visit while in Arequipa.

    Arequipa Santa Catalina Monastery is a historic monastery that has been around for more than 1,000 years and is still well preserved. In addition to the formal monastery, there is also a monastery museum, you can see the history of the monastery for 1000 years, which is quite noble in the minds of the people of Arequipa, and must not be missed.
