What travelers say:

The church of Rosario is also called the Rainbow Glass Church. It is a modern architectural structure that is very different from the traditional church style. There is no pillar in the hall, and it is spacious and open. There is no other lighting except the dim incandescent lamps in front of the elephant, and the light source inside the church is from natural light. That is to say, without sunlight, the whole hall is mostly dark, like an old warehouse. And when the sun shines through the stained glass of the window, what appears to be a fantasy colored church. We entered the church in the morning to visit, and the outside light only illuminated the hall. It is said that between 2 pm and 4 pm on a sunny day, the whole hall will be illuminated by sunlight, the south side of the church and the top wall, there will be color light transmission inlay, this color light shadow is color fusion, dynamic change, light and color fusion transformation how can not let people marvel at the dream of the architect The only one in the world is the most magical modern building in Salvador or Central America. It is said that the church was built in the location of the oldest church in the city of Salvador, and the original old church was damaged by earthquakes and fires. The rainbow glass church was built in 1971 and designed by the renowned architect Rubén Martínez, who once said that “every detail of the building is designed to create a space where Catholics can find light and peace and communicate with the divine nature of the gods.”
