Hello community #Architecture+Design delighted to greet you and wish you a happy and blessed beginning of the week, this is my first publication in this place, hoping to continue contributing my grain of sand in order to grow and above all to show architecture and designs of my region. This is a state that is characterized as a tourist area for the variety of landscapes and natural monuments that we have in it. It is a coastal area with beautiful beaches throughout the city and as I said it is a very visited area by tourists of different nationalities.
For this reason, it has required the construction of different buildings such as hotels, inns and lodging houses to provide visitors a place where they can spend the night.
But today I want to share with you a beautiful design of the parish church Nuestra Señora del Valle, known in the slang as the Virgen del Valle church.

This church is located in the center of the city, is an icon of the same, it is worth mentioning that there converge several bus stops for different sectors, it is also a reference point for student and personal meetings. In this site there are stairs of different routes to transfer passengers who come from surrounding areas to make their purchases and then return to their homes. It is a place of much economic activity in an informal way, selling candy and food to offer to people who are in the area.

Near the sides of this church there is a square with many green areas and seats to rest, in addition, it serves to enjoy a fresh breeze since a few meters from there is the sea. Because it is close to the sea, there are many commercial fishing businesses nearby. It is an area with a large influx of people and a very dynamic economic activity.
Every time I go to the shopping center alone or with my family, whenever we are exhausted we always go to the famous stop of the virgin church of the valley to rest our feet and continue walking until we return again but to wait for the bus back home.

On Sundays a large number of parishioners go there because it is located in a strategic and well known place in the city, I believe that there is not a local who does not know this famous church since it is the point of arrival and departure because it is located at the main stop downtown.
This church has a side made with slab a type of decorative stone and its columns where the building rests is adorned with a type of grit.

The roof of this one has a triangle shape, it also has an annex of a high floor that is fenced with iron bars and an electric fence, it also has aluminum windows to decorate the meeting space.

On the other hand, at one of its ends there is a huge cross made of reinforced concrete to give firmness and above all resistance, since we are in a seismic zone and earth movement occurs daily. At the top of the cross there are several bugles for outdoors with the purpose of announcing the time of the mass or Sunday celebration.

Something to highlight is that in the upper part of this church there is a representative effigy of the Virgin of the Valley.

Internally it has iron and wood seats, good lighting with lamps with candelabra designs, with overhead fans to set the room as our area is very hot, also has beautiful stained glass windows very colorful.

I simply adore the radical architecture of this historically famous church! With its peculiar geometries of triangular shapes and forms, its design characteristics attract attention especially in a location where commuter traffic is high. Plus, its strategic distance close to the sea coast and beautiful gardens transforms it into a more blissful environment - perfect for the faithful and visitors. A truly iconic landmark! 👍

Greetings @virgilio07, a warm welcome to the Architecture+Design Community! 😊

Hello dearest friend @virgilio07, First of all warmly welcome to architecturedesign community. Seems like Virgen del Valle church was built in very busyness place. The triangular shaped roof of the church adds a lot of charm to me. But I feel that the appearance and shape of the front is different because the outside appearance of the churches in our country is different. However, the architectural elements inside are interesting. The light from the bulbs hanging down from the ceiling adds a glow to the interior of the church.

Hello dear friend, thank you very much for such a warm welcome. Yes, it is a meeting place where almost all the people who go to the center of the city converge. If the sides and front have different shapes, but internally if it retains that triangular structure and as you say the internal lights make it look very nice.

Greetings and happy day.
