At the welcoming entrance, it has these beautiful flowerpots with geraniums facing out the balconies and towards San Francisco Street. One you have passed the imposing main gate, you will get to the interior patio, with a great staircase leading to an exquisite upper lever with carved wood that will appease your eyes.

In the highest floor you’ll find the museum where they display the building’s history which was originally two separate homes built in the 1672 for wealthy families.
