This is interesting both from a historical and museum point of view. The Carmelite convent in Potosí, Bolivia, is actually the Santa Teresa Convent founded in 1685 by the Order of the Discalced Carmelites in honor of Saint Teresa of Avila. It was originally a home for Carmelite nuns, a cloistered home for young women from wealthy families, who entered at the age of 15 and lived in strict isolation, dedicating themselves to prayer, scripture, and tasks like baking and sewing. The convent was richly endowed with gifts from families, including paintings, jewellery, and furniture, which are now part of its museum collection showcasing religious art and historical items including stunning Baroque altarpieces, artworks by prominent painters and macabre relics such as...

It's an extremely sad tour. It tells the story of how the terrible catholic institution not only made enslavement happen in America but also made millions of women being nuns that had to live away from society, not talking to their own family. They even show the self torture instruments and where the nuns' bodies were buried. It takes 1 hour and a half for the whole tour and it's very slow rhythm since the guide locks and opens each of the hundreds of rooms you have to get in. For 30 bobs I believe you better do...

Très joli couvent. Une belle bâtisse plutôt bien entretenue et des tableaux d'époques ainsi que d'autres objets divers nous plongeant dans la vie des nonnes.

Je mets seulement 3 étoiles par rapport à la guide. Nous avons rejoint un tour en cours en espagnol, outre le manque d'énergie évident, la guide (une vieille dame) nous a totalement ignoré pendant les 10 minutes alors qu'elle avait seulement 1 visiteur. Quand on "osé" demander une traduction en anglais sur un passage que nous n'avions pas bien compris elle nous a sèchement rétorqué de lire les pancartes (loin d'être exhaustives et pas forcément raccord avec ce qu'elle venait d'expliquer)... elle a même insisté pour qu'on fasse le tour de la bâtisse seuls, ce qu'on a refusé parce qu'on comprend un peu l'espagnol quand même. Et heureusement parce qu'on aurait vu seulement 10% des salles sans elle et ses clés... On ne s'est pas sentis les bienvenus, pour une visite de 1h30, ce n'était...

El Convento-Museo de Santa Teresa es un lugar hermoso y muy bien cuidado donde una se adentra en la vida de las monjas de clausura desde el siglo XVII hasta nuestros días. La entrada cuesta 30bs y 15bs más el derecho a tomar fotografías. Incluye la visita guiada por todos los sectores del convento, a excepción del tercer patio, donde viven las monjas hoy. Nuestra guía nos contó detalles muy interesantes y respondió todas nuestras preguntas. Un sitio que vale la pena visitar en Potosí.

Sin dudas uno de los recorridos más completos de toda la Villa Imperial. Si bien fue un poco largo, y al principio la guía tenía poca onda, estuvimos cerca de dos horas visitando el lugar y conociendo cómo era en sus inicios la vida de las monjas de clausura de la época. Pasamos por lo que fue la cocina, el comedor, los dormitorios, las capillas y los espacios de oración, la iglesia. Además, la arquitectura del lugar es preciosa.
