St. Nicholas Cathedral, Tumbes, Catholic cathedral in Tumbes, Peru.
The cathedral features two semi-circular arches, a two-level sloped roof, and pointed domes decorated with intricate mosaic patterns.
Augustinian priests initiated the construction of this cathedral during the 17th century Spanish colonial period in Peru.
The interior contains wooden altars, stained glass windows depicting Jesus' life, and religious statues that reflect Spanish colonial influences.
The cathedral stands at the central plaza of Tumbes, making it accessible for visitors who want to explore religious architecture.
A complete restoration in 1985 preserved the original baroque architectural elements while maintaining the structural integrity.
