If the weather is fine, the convent is a nice place to wander around for a reasonable entrance fee. It is an interesting insight into the past and the living conditions, plus some good photo opportunities.

The Convent is near the main square in the center of Araquipa. It is well advertised and signposted so you can't miss it.
