BOM JESUS DE MATOSINHOS CHURCH - BRAZIL
The church of Bom Jesus de Matosinhos is located in Congonhas (Minas Gerais), a rather ugly, modern town 72km south of Belo Horizonte,
which sits ill as one of the historic cities.
Built on a hill overlooking the town, with a panoramic view of the hills around it,
the Basílica do Senhor Bom Jesus de Matosinhos is set in a magnificent
sloping garden studded with palms and what look like six tiny mosques with oriental domes.
