Iglesia y Convento de Santa Teresa, Cochabamba, Colonial religious complex in Cochabamba, Bolivia.

The church and convent feature detailed stone columns, religious artworks, and an ornate altar within its Baroque architectural design in downtown Cochabamba.

Founded in 1726 through a donation of 20,000 pesos and 10,000 square meters of land by Juan Salvador Crespo and Melchora Macías.

Four Carmelite sisters from La Plata established this religious institution in 1760, marking the beginning of contemplative religious life in Cochabamba.

Located between Mayor Rocha and Ecuador streets on Calle Mariano Baptista, the monument offers guided tours explaining its architectural elements and religious significance.

The complex includes a central courtyard decorated with period religious paintings and a tower featuring two original colonial-era bells.
