RE: San Pascual Baylón: a hidden local church in Valencia

Though hidden in a small courtyard, this humble church is still incredibly beautiful. With its modest size, I thought at first that it was a chapel. The interior space simply fascinates me specifically on how the round clerestory windows are strategically positioned on the upper walls to allow natural light to illuminate the inside without causing unnecessary glare to the eyes.

Despite its long and narrow layout, the high ceiling compensates for it and makes the entire chamber visually larger. Impressive discovery @duvinca! ☺️

Thanks my friend! I like paying attention to these kind of places with surprising elements and interesting architecture and churches are always a good choice. In addition I like discovering others small gems not so popular but present in lives of many people who live there. I know this church, I remember to watch the facade while passing or in the bus, there is a stop almost in front of this courtyard, so I though that it is the moment to highlight this nice church with many beautiful items! 😍
