The morning of our last day we visited the Capuchinas Convent, one of my favorite sites in Antigua. It is the most restored of earlier churches depicting the circular convent for the nuns. Here is the courtyard with Theora peaking out from one of the living cells. The aerial view shows the convent as well as the large church courtyard. More photos including convent floor plans in the gallery.
