This former convent is now the best place in town to shop for arts and crafts from a slew of various vendors.
Morelia boasts an enormous amount of art and crafts, ranging from textiles to copper and all the amazing representations of Day of the Dead. Patzcuaro is famous for it's lacquerware and even if that isn't your thing, you have to marvel at the skill of these artists who daily produce such marvelous and unique pieces. The House of the Eleven Patios is not only an interesting building but also a very convenient way to see artisans at work across a variety of skills. And it is only when one returns to the larger cities that one realizes that most of the prices are an absolute bargain.

José Maria Morelos, of course, is the city’s namesake. Before this 1828 acknowledgement of his stature as a revolutionary hero, it was Valloladid. We went first to his birthplace, the Casa Natal de Morelos, a modest house in which his mother had only a single room. More impressive and informative was the Casa de Morelos, the more elegant house a couple of blocks away, that he inhabited in the years before the revolution. This museum was filled with information about Morelos himself and about Colonial Mexico and the Mexican Revolution. The artifacts were interesting, but the thorough explications are the real draw. Walking through and reading the placards was like getting a semester-worth of Mexican history in two hours.
