capitals famed cathedrals. Built in the early 1600s, the churchs design is
considered a premier example of Baroque architecture in the New World.
The expansive use of gold leaf throughout the central nave of the church
is breathtaking.
Nariz del Diablo
The Nariz del Diablo, or Devils Nose, describes the train line between
the towns of Alausi and Sibambe. The track gets its name from the great

astounding engineering projects ever undertaken in the mountainous
Andes, the stretch of track offers visitors sweeping panoramic views of
the countryside. A series of switchbacks slowly takes the train up a steep
ascent to Alausi.
