The chapel of the rosary has baroque architecture, is housed in the temple of Santo Domingo and is one of the most beautiful works of baroque novohispano in Puebla. It was worth this work that took 40 years to build, the Virgin of the Rosary in the church is also known as the patron saint of the seas because she is the Virgin of sailors and travelers and above the Virgin is the Santo Domingo and much higher is the Angel Gabriel, the chapel you can see what there are mermaids, scales, shells, dolphins, waves and fish. The gold used to decorate this church came from Guanajuato, it says that the gold came in powder form at 24 carats and the glue in those years was honey, egg whites, aloe, milk, cactus slime, the gold of the altar of the virgin has 23.5 carats of gold, while the gold of the rest of the chapel has 21 carats of gold. The chapel was considered the 8th wonder of the world and was declared Cultural Patrimony of Humanity by UNESCO. I highly recommended you to go, it’s so beautiful.

We will be coming back in may because one of the parts of the church was closed for private events/services when we visited. This is an important detail because it’s the prettiest part of the church that gets closed! If you want to see this beautiful church in full don’t go on a Saturday when the best areas are closed for weddings. If you book a tour also make sure your tour doesn’t try to go during a known mass time. For example on a Saturday at noon almost every church in Puebla has mass and is closed to tours. For example Tips and Tours DMC which is a big tour company with buses all over the city and an office in the tourist information part of the municipal building will sell you a tour with hour long stops here and the main cathedral of Puebla then book them at like 11am so you see none of the churches and your hour per location becomes 5 minutes.

I wasn't expecting much as my better half dragged me into this cavernous church, but I was pleasantly surprised as it held wondrous sites. Being that it was Good Friday, I just wanted to find a place to meditate and contemplate the significance of the day. The church was relatively dark except for the altar and what seemed to be a beacon of light from a chapel to the left of the alter. As we entered it was as if encountering the doorway to the land of gold and artistic beauty. The statues and gold- leafed figures were mesmerizing as we beheld the chapel in it's golden splendor. My description could never do justice to the beauty of this chapel and church so I won't even make an attempt. Many posters have left great photos of the Capilla so you won't need mine. If you are in Puebla, make it a stop, you won't regret it.

This is one of the oldest most opulent church in Mexico. This is one of the most elaborate chapels in Mexico and the first to be dedicated to Our Lady of the Rosary, the Rosary Chapel is a feature on many combined Puebla and several Cholula city tours, including those which depart from around Mexico City. Choose between shared and private options depending on your budget or take a religion-themed tour instead—these typically include visits to Puebla Cathedral too. In the chapel, take time to admire the onyx detailing, angel sculptures, and the central hall. A must see

Oh boy, barroque art at its best. A must if you are in Puebla. The experience of being in a space with such design is incredible, even if you are not a follower of barroque art, this little chapel will change your opinion. Is so exciting that even if you don't believe in the catholic Godd, seeing this wonderful piece of art will make you to feel a deep touch with God, or at least with the intentions of the ones that made this amazing site.

This is a must vest for every tourist of the city. It is something quite unique that probably you have never seen before. Guides are always friendly to give a great explanation for a little tip. It is honestly worth it. Lots and lots of little secrets hidden in the chapel. Try to go during a weekday, less likely to have church service and you can spend a bit more time inside. You are more than welcome to take pictures, so bring your camera.
