This is a view inside "La Popa" This church was erected on the site of Cartagena's tallest hilltop where the first Spainards to the area found a group of indians worshiping a golden calf. Legend has it they melted down the golden calf and used it to decorate the inside of the cathedral. Notice the fine gold ornamentation. The indians would later take revenge on the preist by killing him with a spear through his body.
