Magical town of religious temples
If you're unsure of what to do while in
Tapalpa, feel free to start in its town square, where you'll find a variety of shops, gardens, and temples, such as the neoclassical
San Antonio de Padua Church, which dates back 350 years.
The Templo de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe (Temple of Our Lady of Guadalupe) is nearby and was built in the late twentieth century. As such, it boasts modern architecture. You can also visit the Capilla la Purísima and the Templo de Nuestra Señora de las Mercedes. Although these temples were built 300 years apart, they both boast a baroque style.
A leisurely stroll through its streets will take you to the pilas, water tanks built to supply water to the population and that are still used for this purpose. Four such tanks are still in operation in the
Pueblo Mágico of
Tapalpa: las de las culebras (the one with the snakes), pila colorada (the red tank), pila del perro (the dog's tank), and the pila del tecolote (the owl's tank).
