Explore the Architectural Beauty of San Miguel de Allende

Join us for a walk through the city of San Miguel de Allende, a colonial-era city in Mexico's central highlands known for its Spanish baroque architecture, thriving arts scene, and cultural festivals. In the city's historic cobblestoned center lies the neo-Gothic church Parroquia de San Miguel Arcángel, whose dramatic pink towers rise above the main plaza, El Jardín. Start the tour at the main parish of San Miguel de Allende, where the guide will introduce Mexico, its geography, and its history. Then, the guide will give a brief explanation of the origin of San Miguel de Allende and its unique parish church. Later, walk through its French-style garden and visit the Immaculate Conception Convent, admiring the different styles at the entrance. Appreciate one of the best examples of the French Neoclassic architectural style in the region. Next, stop by the Franciscan Convent, which has different churches in the same cluster. Finally, end the tour at the city square, where you will be able to appreciate the chapel dedicated to Our Lady of Health and the Oratory of Saint Philip Neri.
