Parroquia San Juan Bautista

Worth visiting as it has interesting interior and nice courtyard with cafe. The exterior looks a bit worn but it adds some charm

This Church looks a little deteriorated on the exterior, but once you set foot inside comes the wow factor 🤩 This place is stunning, the ceilings are full of paintings and the details are beautiful. Definitely would recommend visiting, and it’s located in the lovely and vibrant center of Coyoacan.

One of the oldest churches in the hemisphere, construction started only 8 years after Hernan Cortes conquered Tenochtitlan.
Interior is very interesting. It’s a working church so many people go worship inside. Many Mexicans are devout and request for saints to intercede for them. When God grants a miracle, requested through a saint, the devout person will leave a small token or medal hanging on the wall next to the interceding saint.
Worth a visit.

Great church. Beautiful. Free access.

Nice church but doesnt feel.the solemness probably a lot of tourist...

Very interesting church, a fine example of the early New Spain colonial architecture, quite austere in its original form but later embellished (particularly the mosaics inlaid domes) by Franciscan friars to whom Hernán Cortés granted the land, shortly after the Conquista, in the early XVIth century.
The gallery offers fine inlaid and intricately carved ceilings (do your homework and search for the meanings and symbols of the various parts of the ceiling) and beautiful garden in its courtyard.

One of the oldest churches in Mexico. Built by Hernan Cortez in 1526. Still a functioning church. We arrived just as noon mass was beginning. I have a bit of video at the end of the post.

Its a Catholic Church with great interiors. Location is perfect for walking around with the family and it is a very safe area. Parking could be extremely difficult at peak hours. Surroundings offer great food variety and handcrafted products stores.

Beautiful Church, built under mandate by Cortes himself shortly after the conquest of the city. The apse is very impressive, and be sure to look for the ghost of Brother Lego, whose ghost it is said places roses at the altar of Mary.

Breathtaking.

Absolutely gorgeous. Free to enter. Following all covid protocols.

Stunning church. Don't forget to go to the garden in the back!

This was the second church I visited on my trip to Mexico the first was The Villas

Modest on the outside, impressive on the inside

Very ornate cathedral .

Beautiful old catholic church in the main square of Coyoacán

Beautiful church! Something you see in Rome! Must go and great plaza to walk around after

Beautifully restored interior of this almost 500 year old church. Very impressive. Witness almost every Saturday at 4,5,6 either a baptism, Quinceañera, wedding, or graduation celebration. You will want to take lots of pictures.

Beautiful church and former convent. A must see when in Coyoacan Mexico DF.

Very Nice Place ! With good food close to the place.
