Description
My time in the little city of San Juan del Sur was a combination of short and packed with activities. As a result, there were a lot of places that I would have liked to have explored in a little more detail. This cute little church, Iglesia San Juan Bautista, is on that list. I loved the simple lines of the facade, a certain Spanish feel to it, but I'm not sure if it was Colonial or just built along those lines. And I've not been able to uncover any history of this little church in San Juan del Sur to tell me one way or the other.
I loved the contrast of the almost tangerine color of the stucco church against the verdant green hills of tropical Nicaragua. Makes me kind of sad that I've found what I think are more recent photos of the church with a new green pain job. The old color definitely popped against that natural backdrop, didn't it?
This work is based off of a photo I took on my final morning in San Juan del Sur. I got up early for one last walkabout this colorful little town, my own way of saying farewell to a place I would have liked to spend more time.
