Church sights in Liberia

  1. A

    Iglesia Inmaculada Concepción de María

    If this iglesia (church) doesn't cut it for religious splendor, walk six blocks northeast of the park along Avenida Central where you'll find the oldest church in town, popularly called La Agonía (though maps show it as La Iglesia de la Ermita de la Resurección).

  2. B

    La Agonía

    Six blocks northeast of the park you'll find the oldest church in town, popularly called La Agonía (although maps show it as La Iglesia de la Ermita de la Resurección). It's a gloriously decrepit mud-and-brick relic, locked and closed to the public, but the adjacent park has become the defacto skate park – complete with poured concrete ramps and charming local skate punks. Strolling to La Agonía and the surrounding (somewhat seedy) blocks makes for an interesting walk.
