    You might want to skip the side chapel if time is tight and instead focus on the 1579 stone façade and the original iconostasis. After that a quick walk past the Dutch style gatehouse gives a sense of colonial influence. If you have a few extra minutes, the nearby St. Joseph’s Church is another quick 17th century spot worth a glance. A coffee break at Hotel Aida, just under a kilometre away, is a convenient rest stop.
