Lonely Planet review

Completed in 1999, the cathedral stands on the site of an earlier version that burnt down in 1956. The beige stucco building has two bell towers rising above a blue-and-yellow checkered dome and its facade is decorated with colorful campesino (rural) motifs of La Palma painter Fernando Llort. Underneath the cavernous nave is Archbishop Oscar A Romero's tomb.
