A
Santuario de Guadalupe
On the northeast edge of Plaza Morelos, the Santuario de Guadalupe feels like the set piece from Willy Wonka's psychedelic spiritual dream. The pink and red walls of this baroque church built from 1708 to 1716 blooms with white flowers and glistens with an abundance of gold leaf. There's so much color, the interior (decorated in 1915) feels like a Hindu temple. It's the kind of place that would inspire Timothy Leary to do up Virgen de Guadalupe acid tabs.

Ex-Convento de San Diego
Beside the Santuario de Guadalupe, the much less splashy Ex-Convento de San Diego was built in 1761 as a monastery and now houses the law school of the Universidad Michoacana.
