United State Second Antique San Jose Church located in Old San Juan Puerto Rico by Sylvette Travels

  16th Century Church of San Jose in Old San Juan Puerto Rico Its Finally Open! After almost 20yrs of reconstructions History is safe once again. This Church is the most antique from USA and is located in Old San Juan Puerto Rico. The Church of San Jose in Old San Juan is constructed by the years 1532 -1735 by the orders of the Dominicos. The actual name of the church was given by the Jesuitas when they took the monastery by 1865. I have to say I never saw this Church inside so I'm happy to hear that is finally open.
