The best view of the iconic monument of Querétaro!

Place of hookups, love encounters and breakups; obligatory point to buy the newspaper and wear your shoes; postcard of a childhood that passed between the skating rink and games between the quarry and the flowers; and, more recently, a meeting place for dozens of urban netizens, since it has a wireless internet network.

The complex was built at the end of the 17th century, as a small hospice and hospital so that the missionary friars who ventured into the Sierra Gorda, in their arduous evangelizing task, could treat their illnesses, learn the indigenous languages and have economic and moral support. .

It is seen in circuits 1 and 2:
Its construction took place between 1731 and 1745 in an exceptional baroque style. The cloister of the former convent, the most beautiful in America, currently houses the Museum of Art. The Querétaro Art Museum is an institution that is part of the Secretariat of Culture of the State of Querétaro and was founded on September 22, 1988, consolidating its presence as one of the most important cultural spaces in Querétaro. It has 15 exhibition rooms, on both floors of the building, and a permanent collection made up of works of art from the 17th to the 19th centuries.

Descent in Circuit 1:
More than a hundred years old, this historic facility, considered one of the most notable examples of Mexican railroad infrastructure, transports us to the 20th century, when the railroad was the most modern means of transportation. The construction of this station began in 1903 and its construction was completed in 1904. It was the second train stop that Querétaro had. It was narrow and connected to Mexico City and Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas. It was inaugurated in 1903 by the then president Porfirio Diaz, with the arrival of a train from Mexico City. Access times are limited. Subject to availability.

Seen only in Circuit 2:
Symbol and pride of the City of Querétaro, located on Bernardo Quintana Boulevard, stands the imposing El Acueducto, considered the most important urban work of the 18th century that was erected seeking to channel water for the city. This majestic construction is due to the benefactor of Querétaro Juan Antonio de Urrutia y Arana, Marquis of Villa del Villar del Águila, who ordered it to be built between 1726 and 1738 to satisfy a request from the Capuchin nuns.

Descent in Circuit 2: From the viewpoint, we can admire this monumental building, one of the largest in Mexico. It has a length of 1280 m. Its maximum height is 23 m and it has 74 stone arches with a latitude of 13, supported by masonry pillars measuring more than 3 and a half meters square, the last of which led into the water patio of the Convent of La Cruz. . Today you can see, in that same patio, sundials each oriented to function in the different seasons of the year.

Descent of Circuit 3: Cerro de las Campanas is one of the most emblematic sites of the city, the site of the execution of Emperor Maximilian of Habsburg and generals Miguel Miramón and Tomás Mejía. The name is derived from a legend that speaks of some stones on the hill that, when hit, remind us of the ringing of bells. Admission subject to availability. Reduced access hours.
