This extremely ornate 17th-century chapel is part of the Santo Domingo Church.
There was a sign stating no pictures in the chapel which was disappointing but pictures couldn't truly capture the gilded ornate beauty of this 17th Century chapel which was part of the Santo Domingo Church. The chapel was in the new Spanish baroque style. The chapel worships the Virgin Mary and was used to teach the people the prayer of the rosary. Put this on your itinerary!

Such a beautiful place both inside and out. Truly the focal point of the historic district. Please be respectful especially if something is happening inside.

This beautiful building is the oldest mission in Baja.
Origination spot of California Missions El Camino Real with a large bell in the city center. Such a great experience to see where it all started! Thank you Loreto!

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

Formally known as Nuestra Senora de Asuncion, this 18th-century church is a leading example of Churrigueresque architecture.
Especially the outside of the building is fascinating, I couldn't get enough from looking up to all that beautiful stonework. The modern altar is unusual and impressive.
