Founded by the Second Audience of the New Spain on 1531, Puebla became, due to its geographic-strategic position between Veracruz and Mexico City, in the second most important city of the territory of the New Spain. By the hand of the architects, stonemasons, and countless artists who took advantage of the goodness that the territory offered, the nascent Spanish metropolis flourished through the years, acquiring a style of its own that set the overseas region apart from the peninsula. Across the streets and museums of Puebla, we will admire constructions, carvings, and paintings that will show us, in the best form, the Baroque discourse that prevailed in the Mexican colonial period.

Date of the tour: October, Saturday 12th and Sunday 13th.
