Architectural Character
The building itself is a very solid construction of coral,
stucco, lumber, and tree sap. The huge mosaics are
glued with natural tree resin. The Spanish friars who
built the church wanted to make sure it would withstand
earthquakes and so they used the strongest materials
they could find and to good effect. Huge coral stones

were used in the lower portion of the church to have a
great hold of its weight.
The adaptive reuse of baroque style against
earthquake is developed since many destructive
earthquakes destroyed earlier churches in the country.

Java can also be seen on the church walls and facade.
