The convent has a beautiful church, a large quiet paved courtyard, cloistered nuns and a store at the rear (west) end of the courtyard where they sell really good cookies.

The convent was founded by the daughter of the Canal family - the family that at one time owned and run much of San Miguel.

The altar is very very gold & full of floral arrangements that are put in place by disembodied hands - I can only hope the hands belong to the nuns. There are a series of heavy curtains behind the altar and the nuns are just behind them. There are so many churches in San Miguel I was rather 'churched out' by the time I got to this one so I can't say to much more about it, but again, I can recommend the cookies.

Next door is the Bellas Artes.
