What to expect

  1. Plaza de las Tres Culturas
    30m
    Discover the Plaza de las Tres Culturas, a unique space where three eras converge: the pre-Hispanic ruins of Tlatelolco, the colonial architecture of the Temple of Santiago and the modernity of the Nonoalco-Tlatelolco Urban Complex. An emblematic place that reflects the living history of the country in one place.
  2. 1h
    Explore Mariana Square, a modern resort that complements Guadalupana tradition. Located next to the Basilica of Guadalupe, it has a museum, cultural centers, a religious souvenir market and meeting spaces for thousands of pilgrims. It is a place that unites faith, history and services in a safe and accessible environment.
  3. Antigua Basilica de Guadalupe
    1h
    Built in the 16th century with a Baroque style that reflects colonial grandeur. For centuries it was the main Marian shrine of Mexico, and inside you can still see altarpieces, paintings and artistic details that narrate Guadalupan devotion throughout history. Its architectural and spiritual value make it an essential stop for understanding the faith and tradition of the Mexican people.
  4. Basilica de Santa Maria de Guadalupe
    1m
    Opened in 1976 to welcome millions of pilgrims each year. Its circular and modern design allows the original image of the Virgin of Guadalupe to be visible from any point of the temple. This site, which holds more than 10,000 people, is a symbol of contemporary faith and one of the most important pilgrimage sites in the Catholic world. Here you will live a unique experience of spirituality and culture.
