La Paz

January 08, 2022

La Paz is the capital of Baja California Sur, a Mexican state on the Baja California Peninsula. It’s known for its seafront Malecón promenade with beaches, parks and art by Mexican and international artists. Many bars and restaurants overlook the water. In the city center, the 19th-century Nuestra Señora de La Paz Cathedral dominates the shady Velasco Garden .It is located in the place where the mission was founded by the Jesuits in the eighteenth century. The current temple was built in the second half of the 19th century. A sober neoclassical style on the outside, it has a simple façade and two towers, which resemble those of the North American temples. The interior of the temple has beautiful baroque altarpieces from the 18th century, which come from other missions that were fortunate to be abandoned.

Thanks a lot Pat!
