Located in downtown Mazatlan, the architecture makes it well worth a visit.
The Mazatlán Cathedral (formally known as The Cathedral Basilica of the Immaculate Conception) is a gorgeous Baroque-Revival style Church in the middle of downtown’s ‘Centro’ area. Construction started on this church is 1856 but didn’t finish until 1899, due do financial troubles within the church. The outside is painted a lovely yellow, while the inside is uniquely ornate with chandeliers, wood, marble and gold. Sometimes the church is closed to the public for Catholic weddings, but most of the time you’ll find it open to wander inside. Tip: A very interesting fact about its history is that the Jewish Community actually stepped in and funded the completion of the church, and in turn had the Star of David put into some of the windows. See if you can find them! Cost: free. But it’s always appreciated to leave a contribution to the church. How to get there: Type ‘Mazatlán Cathedral' into Google Maps or Uber. Walkable from cruise port. Address: 21 de Marzo, Centro

Located on a hillside 1,200 feet above sea level, this contemporary chapel is recognized by its 130-foot cross.
Interesting history and great view in multiple directions. Worth stopping at if passing by. Donation appreciated.

Unadultered authentic Nayarit small lovely friendliest town. People relaxed, happy and helpful at every turn. Food exquisite and favorite eating was on the broad street leading in and out if town near the hill up to the Condaturia. Accommodations intimate, immaculate, gardened thoroughly and best bug pool For laps which I seemed to have to myself. Birding probably the best dense (!) ever of Pacific given our pretty small sphere of travel ( up into mountains, down along shore but not in breath of Kilometres). We are already planning a hearty return next year.
