While visiting I had to check out this huge goose sculpture. It's a hotel, and although we rung the bell, it wasn't possible to get inside the gate. You probably need to be a hotel guest, or have a private invitation. read more

I believe a parroquia is considered less than a cathedral in the pecking order of the Catholic…read morechurch, but what do I know? It's still a cool landmark, especially at sunset when the pastel pink hue of the building takes on a seductive glow. It's probably sacrilege to refer to a parish church as seductive, but hey, my knowledge of Catholicism is limited to watching "Conclave" on Amazon Prime. Good flick. Originally built in the 17th century, the church was redesigned in the 1800's to its current more ornate state by architect Zeferino Gutiérrez Muñoz. He took inspiration from European cathedrals, and its fanciful silhouette brings to mind a cross between Sagrada Família and the Sleeping Beauty Castle in Disneyland with a little bit of Petra's pink sandstone thrown in for good measure. It's free to enter the church where you're expected to keep quiet while parishioners pray. Right across the courtyard is the Iglesia de San Rafael, another Catholic church with an equally resplendent interior. It's no wonder the parroquia is the vantage point for notable vista points like El Mirador and popular rooftop restaurants like Quince and Luna Rooftop. It's definitely the city's essential stop.

Nice architecture, in baroque style, this is a church dedicated to Sf. Francis of Asisi (his portrait can be seen at the top). Definetely a place to visit if you are in the area. It is not always opened, the hours vary, can't say I figured it out well, but if you walk downtown a few times, give it a shot! It has nice sculptures inside and it very peaceful!

It is a perfect way to sightsee this charming town anyways! Saint Felipe Neri is the patron of this church, and the patron of joy and laughter in general. The church was built in 1712 in baroque style and is a jewel of the area. Breathtaking, a challenge to photograph it in its entire shape, the church is a must visit place while in town. It has a different style than other churches in town and you get to learn more about the history of this cool place! The interior has many wonderful oil paintings, if you have the time, it is worth to look around for ten minutes or so (at least). Beautiful church that I am glad I stumble into while walking around. Its beautiful tower will show the way to it!

Jamie W and I were staying close to Parque Juarez, so we walked up a series of stairways built in the quiet El Chorro neighborhood. With several rest stops along the way, we felt relatively comfortable with the incline. It took us less than twenty minutes to get to the observation area. From here, we could take in the panoramic views of the city (Photo 5). We followed the main road to get us back down to Zona Centro. Beyond the narrow walkway, the biggest challenge was the noise from the nonstop traffic. Make sure you look left to the side streets to capture even more photogenic views of the parroquia (Photo 8). While we were here on a sunny morning, the cobblestone paths might get hazardous in the rain. Just be mindful. RELATED - Exploring San Miguel de Allende?

It was built in 1735, in Baroque style, the interior is simpler detail wise. Not always open, but if you are lucky enough, it's worth visiting it, lots of local history to discover. It's also peaceful and quiet! I enjoyed taking photos here and admired the original work done, the materials they use, colors, etc. Amazing church!

The cost of entry is 50 pesos, which I was a bit reluctant to pay. Let me tell you, it was well worth it! The museum is clean, well organized, and has many vibrant displays. Both children and adults will enjoy the colorful displays. An added bonus is that the building is air conditioned. Do yourself a favor and go all the way to the top of the building and spend some time on the terraces. They offer a relaxing roof-top view of the city.

It's a serene, safe place to wander pathways and explore, even if it lacks anything as colorful, vibrant, or artful as (my favorite), the U.K.'s Kew Gardens. Between the attractive gift shop one enters through, the building that functions as a museum for what you'll see here, and the al fresco cafe where fresh-squeezed juices are well-priced and delicious, you might mistakenly think you're in the Bay Area, with far cheaper prices. It's very aesthetically pleasing. The actual botanic gardens are somewhat less so. A map of the grounds will show you the trails and the layout but it's easy enough to just wander. There's some art (very little), some created habitats (e.g. medicinal plants), a greenhouse, and a lake/pond to cross and see some historic relics. Whether any of this appeals to you really depends on your mood. If you decide to come here I'd recommend you walk from wherever you are. The hilly walk here from central SMA takes you through a really lovely neighborhood of high end homes before suddenly navigating a dirt path with tumbleweeds and cacti. All of this nicely satisfies the desire you have to see things because, once on site here, what you'll see is - I have to admit - less exciting. Finish up with a green juice and purchase some organic honey for those back home. Then enjoy the walk back to where you came from.

Just park directly at the location or get a taxi to drive you up there. Also it can be a bit challenging for kids and the elderly so I wouldn't recommend making the full circle. I would say to at least cross the mini dam since it was the most beautiful thing there. I also loved the abandoned villa with its ancient oven. The entrance was very nice and it had well kept bathrooms inside as well. Lastly, I would recommend bringing a bottle of water and to add some sunscreen.
