Downtown/Oldtown Quito



Here are the photos I took of the trip to Old Downtown Quito yesterday. I got busted with one short video in the largest church since I didn't know I wasn't suppose to take photos. But in the other churches its okay.  I also will post some photos of some cards I bought that are a bit better. The photos don't really do justice for the experience.

Also there was a room that had some old bells but many of them got melted down to make guns to protect the church. Just so much history and beautiful artwork along with the religion. They had some paintings of heaven and hell. Hope they show up below.

All the videos are very short and have some info in the sound and will be at the end of the pictures.

I will also show some more photos of cards I bought since some are nicer then my photos.
