La Paz in Mexico is a beautifulful city on the Sea Of Cortez that deserves much more attention than it actually gets. La Paz is also the capital and cultural center of the state of Baja California Sur.
The impressive stone cathedral of Nuestra Senora de la Paz rises majestically in front of the old Jardin Velasco in the historical heart of this dusty humble Baja Town. The suggestive simplicity of its architectural design resembles that of the churches of the Californian missions. Like most Spanish colonial churches in Mexico the architecture alone is worth the visit.
Rest on one of the simple wooden pews and watch the ebb and flow of the church, so much a part of Mexican life. With its series of stunning stained glass windows, wood-carved stations of the cross, and a precious sculpture of the Virgin Mother and infant child, Our Lady of La Paz is one of the most serene cathedrals I have ever visited.
