Saltillo Cathedral (Saltillo)

Mexico / Coahuila / Saltillo
 church, monument, place with historical importance, catholicism
This is the very lovely Catedral de Santiago.The front facade is very exuberant and baroque, similar to the one in Zacatecas though a little more restrained. It has beautifully carved heavy wooden doors in the front. Inside the church has a single aisle and is mostly neo-classical with a central dome and real transepts. In the transepts, however, the neo-classical gives way to more baroque with gilded altars just like those in the Templo Santo Domingo in Zacatecas.
