Downtown Guadalajara
This is where the main monuments and history of the city are located in the downtown area.
This is perhaps the most emblematic and representative monument of the city. Its construction began in 1558 and ended in 1618, which makes the Cathedral a building as old as the city itself. The architectural style is baroque contemporary and inside the Cathedral there are several religious relics and paintings, including the remains of the martyr Santa Inocencia.
To one side of the Cathedral you will find an esplanade with what is the Rotunda of the Illustrious Jaliscienses, a monument in honor of the men and women who have transcended through history. The remains of some of them are found here.
Next to the roundabout of the illustrious Jalisciences, you’ll find the museum. The building itself is quite attractive, it dates back to colonial times and was used as a war barracks. Today you will be able to learn a little more about the history of the region, from the first prehistoric settlements to its role in the Mexican Revolution. One of the most impressive pieces in the museum are the remains of a mammoth and the various colonial paintings.
Behind the Cathedral, passing the large square, you will find the Teatro Degollado. It has an immediately identifiable facade of columns and representation of Apollo with the nine muses. It is possible to visit the interior of the theater but it is important that you check the visiting hours
Behind the Degollado Theater is the museum and cultural icon of the city, the Cabañas Cultural Institute. Today the building is recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and houses Orozco's major works. The museum has tours throughout the day, which we highly recommend as they will explain the murals and their history in detail
The architectural style of the temple is completely different from the baroque style contemporary of the cathedral, this temple is more modern but its architecture resembles the great medieval cathedrals of Europe.
Museum of the Arts is one of the installations of the University of Guadalajara dedicated to cultural promotion.
