In the heart of Puebla, 90 miles from Mexico City, stands the historic Puebla Cathedral (Catedral de Puebla), a stunning example of baroque and Spanish colonial architecture. Built with intricate details, the cathedral boasts 14 chapels adorned with 16th-century paintings. The most striking feature is its twin bell towers, the tallest in Mexico, which are said to have been lifted into place by angels. Visitors can explore the chapels, admire the artwork, and take in the grandeur of this architectural masterpiece.
