This Church was restored and is one of the most beautiful on Chiapas.

The monastery with its church was built in the 16th century, with the monastery secularized later. The church retains its original function. The building with two courtyards was restored between 1999 and 2002 to become a community and cultural center, with the Museo de la Laca, founded in 1952, moved inside to take up much of the upper floor. This museum contains about 450 pieces from various parts of Mexico and Asia, mostly made in the 20th century. The complex also contains halls with permanent and temporary exhibits along with an auditorium and various types of workshops.

The former monastery complex was built along with the Santo Domingo church on a small hill overlooking the Grijalva River, in the second half of the 16th century, attributed to Pedro de Barrientos and Juan Alonso. The church portion is one of the best preserved from the 16th century in Chiapas. The former monastery is behind the large church with two main courtyards. It was secularized during the Reform War with the church retaining its original function. It underwent its most recent restoration between 1999 and 2002 in order to make it a community and cultural center for the city of Chiapa de Corzo, with the Museo de la Laca moving into it. It, along with other facilities and operations, is managed by the Consejo Estatal para la Cultura y la Artes of Chiapas (CONECULTA). The entire building is officially called the Casa Escuela de Tradiciones but it is most commonly called the Museo de la Laca, although this museum only takes up most of the...

Reseña de la Iglesia de Santo Domingo de Guzmán en San Cristóbal de las Casas:

La Iglesia de Santo Domingo de Guzmán en San Cristóbal de las Casas es una joya arquitectónica que forma parte del patrimonio cultural y natural de esta encantadora ciudad. Ubicada en la calle Lázaro Cárdenas, en la Colonia Mexicanos, este templo y antiguo convento es una de las máximas expresiones del barroco chiapaneco.

La fachada rosa de la iglesia es simplemente impresionante, está sobrecargada de figuras ornamentales como anagramas, sirenas, angelitos indígenas y grecas vegetales. Es una de las fachadas más decoradas del arte colonial mexicano y cautiva a quienes la observan.

En su interior, la iglesia alberga verdaderas joyas artísticas. Destaca el púlpito labrado en una sola pieza de roble, un verdadero tesoro de la carpintería. Los valiosos lienzos religiosos y los complejos retablos también impresionan por su belleza y detalle.

Además de su valor histórico y arquitectónico, la Iglesia de Santo Domingo de Guzmán tiene un atractivo adicional. Se encuentra rodeada de un mercado de artesanías y joyería artesanal, lo que le añade un ambiente encantador y lleno de color. Es el lugar perfecto para adquirir piezas únicas y apreciar el talento artesanal de la región.

El complejo religioso fue construido en el siglo XVII y, en la actualidad, en sus antiguos claustros funciona una cooperativa de artesanía indígena y un museo de historia regional. Esta combinación de historia, cultura y tradición hacen de la visita a la Iglesia de Santo Domingo una experiencia enriquecedora y fascinante.

Si visitas San Cristóbal de las Casas, no puedes dejar de explorar la belleza y el esplendor de la Iglesia de Santo Domingo de Guzmán. Su arquitectura única, sus tesoros artísticos y su entorno lleno de arte y artesanía te transportarán a través de la historia y te permitirán sumergirte en la rica...

The beautiful church was surrounded by so many small stalls that you may not even be able to find the front entrance. In fact the stall is even take over the outside of the front entrance which make it difficult to appreciate the church building. The whole place is a messy noisy market place not a religious place, incase you are looking...

Beautiful church but hard to appreciate at the moment. Closed off for renovations and you can't go inside (just like the cathedral). You can't even appreciate what's left to see from the outside, since the surrounding areas normally belonging to the church are now fully "squatted" by the "artisanal market".
