The interior of the Mission is very beautiful. The artwork and woodworking are delicate and intricate with very rich colors. There is a main chapel in the center and two side chapels. This is one of the side chapels. The interior is also undergoing restoration efforts and it was being worked on while we there. It was interesting to watch it being done.

WOW!
Wonder who their decorator was?
Your photo is spectacular.
Thank you. I wish I could have gotten a photo inside with no people in it, but there were always some people walking around or sitting there.
