The Parroquia de San Francisco de Asís, an emblem of Cuetzalan’s colonial past, is a must-visit for photographers drawn to architecture and history. Distinguished by its imposing façade adorned with intricate carvings, the church is an epitome of the unique blend of indigenous and Spanish influences in Mexican architecture. Its vibrant red dome, studded with white and yellow accents, provides a stunning contrast against the town’s terracotta rooftops. Photographers can capture the church from various vantage points around the town, with the rising or setting sun casting a golden glow on the structure, or under the starlit sky for an ethereal nocturnal scene. Don’t forget to take a walk around the lively town, with its cobblestone streets and colorful houses adding more depth to your photography.
