This time Giselly sent by a card from Ouro Preto. The city contains numerous churches, many famous for their religious art and baroque architecture. The card shows an interior view of the Our Lady of Pilar Church.
This is the richest and more exquisite church in the state of Minas Gerais. It was built between 1711 and 1733! To decorate the interior it were used more than 400 kg (880 pounds) of gold and silver powder.

Although i already have many cards from the Fátima Sanctuary, i didn't have this view yet, sent by Gracinha.
The Basilica of Our Lady of the Rosary is a Roman Catholic Marian basilica in Fátima, Portugal. Its construction began in 1928 and it was consecrated in October 1953.
The basilica is built at the site of the Marian apparitions reported by three Portuguese children in 1917 and known as Our Lady of Fátima. The tombs of Blessed Francisco Marto, Blessed Jacinta Marto and Sister Lúcia, the three children, are in the Basilica. - in: wikipedia
