The facade is relatively small, and there is a cave after entering. It has a long history and pleasant scenery. It is the oldest church still in use in California, also commonly known as the Swallow Church. The export gift shop has many small ornaments in the shape of swallows, which are very interesting.

The ancient Swallow Church is very spectacular. I especially like the ancient buildings. I have seen a lot of them so far, but the one I like most is the church. It’s not because of my religion, I just like the atmosphere in the church. There are so many churches there, but when I searched for information on the Internet, I saw the San Juan Capistrano Church at first sight, so of course I have to take a look. ●Appearance Although the age of this church is not so scary, but the history is long enough. The exterior wall of the church looks mottled as if it is about to collapse, and the exterior of the church looks very simple, not interesting and fancy Traces, even the color of the most simple earth wall, such a simple church is really rare, and the facade is really small. And there are many gift shops at the exit of the church. The souvenirs inside are very creative. You can buy them to commemorate it. ●Don’t look at the small facade of the church inside, but after entering the church, there is really a unique cave inside. It’s really not easy to keep the original appearance now. After I came inside, I was shocked. The simplicity on the outside is completely different. The inside is very magnificent, and there are many religious colored murals. It is magnificent, and there are many religious relics inside the church, which are very precious cultural relics. Opening hours: 8:00-18:00 Ticket information: If you don't need a ticket, it is recommended to play for 1 hour
The church has experienced earthquakes, and its century-old history has been destroyed, leaving ruined walls. Now the church has been rebuilt, and its overall building is solemn, and it still maintains the style of the early construction, which is very rare. The church is repainted in resplendent and resplendent colors, and the collection of Buddhist cultural relics is rich, such as Buddha statues, ancient bells, and ancient books.
