    A quick way to hit the highlights is to start at the 1579 stone façade, then walk straight to the original 16th century iconostasis before heading to the side chapel. Right beside the church you’ll find the old Dutch style gatehouse a small but interesting relic that shows colonial influence. If you have a few extra minutes, the nearby St. Joseph’s Church on the same street is a neat 17th century spot worth a quick glance. Afterward, you could stop at Hotel Aida for a coffee before you keep driving.
