Леонский собор
Объект всемирного наследия ЮНЕСКО (Никарагуа)
был построен в период между 1747 г. и началом 19-го века по проекту гватемальского зодчего Диего Хосе де Поррес Эскивеля. Памятник отражает переход от барокко к неоклассической архитектуре, и его стиль можно считать эклектическим. Собору свойственна сдержанность внутреннего убранства и большое количество дневного света. Свод алтаря, однако, отличается богатством орнамента. В Соборе представлены замечательные произведения искусства, включая деревянный фламандский задник алтаря и картины никарагуанского художника Антонио Сарриа (конец 19-го и начало 20-го веков), изображающие 14 остановок Крестного пути на Голгофу.

Incredible experience to walk the roof. Beautiful views of the city with the volcanoes in the back, for only $3 or so. Gorgeous inside as well.

Its beautiful! There's incredible paintings inside. 98 cordoba to walk on the roof. Worth it! Inside is free to enjoy. Please be respectful, people are praying. Take your shoes off on the freshly painted part of the roof. Be warned, it's very hard on the eyes on a sunny day from the sun reflecting off the white paint, so bring sunglasses.

Beautiful place. Regarding the roof availability - make sure you know when it's open and hours of operation. Seems like it can be changed randomly. Doesn't work on Sunday, closes at 5 most days meaning they sell tickets (3$/98 cordobas) till 4.30pm and ask you to leave the roof at about 4.50. But some days they operate till midday and sell tickets till 11.30 - they have the hours written at the office selling tickets. Tickets are sold outside of the actual entrances to the church (there are 3 big entrances) but you'll need to find a separate door outside for the ticket office. Yet another door is for the actual stairs to the roof. Try to go for up longer to catch some time with less people. You'll need to take your shoes off to walk in some areas.

The upstairs tour is worth the trip if you never snuck up on a church roof. Great views.
