    Jardín Borda

    Beside the 1784 Parroquia de Guadalupe, this extravagant property, Jardín Borda inspired by Versailles, was designed in 1783 for Manuel de la Borda as an addition to the stately residence built by his father, José de la Borda. From 1866, Emperor Maximilian and Empress Carlota entertained their cour­tiers here, and used the house as a summer residence.
