En verano hace un calor infernal

cool gray

【2005年9月5日】クエンカのカテドラルを見て感動した後、新市街に下ったら、とてもユニークな教会を発見した。しかし、隣にある観光案内所があるのに閉まっていて、名前も内部を見学できる時間も分からない...。試しに、ドア・ノブを回してみると、地下にあたる部分にある小さい礼拝堂には入ることができた。ステンドクラスが眩しいくらい美しい。そして、パターンがとてもユニークである。礼拝堂の外にある待合室にあるステンドグラス。一番下の部分には、馬がモチーフになっているようだけど、それ以外は意味合いが分からない。上階にある礼拝堂を見学できなかったのが、本当に残念。もし、今度来ることがあるのなら、絶対に事前に調べて見学したい。

Iglesia con especial connotación en acontecimientos familiares . Situación estratégica en nuestra Semana Santa . Los sacerdotes un encanto . Lástima q algunos de los mayores , como un tal Raimund( creo recordar ) , sigan confesando sin tener aptitud para ello(triste q acudas a la " Casa De Dios” y salgas defraudada) …Es por ello q califico a esta Iglesia con 3 estrellas y no con 5 . Gracias a EVA ( religiosa q colabora alli) por su amabilidad y al P. Angel por su empatía en el confesionario ( 5 estrellas para èl *****).
