Church of Santa Inés, Colonial church near Zócalo, Mexico City, Mexico
The Church of Santa Inés features two distinct portals decorated with carved wooden doors displaying religious scenes and symbolic representations.
The convent complex, established in 1600 by Don Diego Caballero and Doña Inés de Velasco, provided shelter for 33 nuns until its dissolution in 1861.
The church dome incorporates tiles arranged in patterns resembling rebozos, traditional Mexican shawls, connecting architecture with indigenous elements.
Located at 26 Moneda Street northeast of the Zócalo, the church remains open for visitors interested in religious services and architectural observation.
The final resting place of notable Mexican painters Miguel Cabrera and José de Ibarra adds artistic significance to this religious structure.
