Legends say angels were nice enough to fly down in 1531 to identify the exact spot to build a cathedral in Puebla (not the church in the featured photo). Even more amazing, some claim the angels returned later, adding their wing-power to help lift an enormous bell up into one of the towers.
These postcards from Puebla are taking a long time to deliver. Instead of an orderly presentation of stories behind the churches, several dating from the 1500s, they are appearing here in a cluster of facades, many colorfully tiled, that make wandering her streets so fascinating.
Makes one want a coloring book of the tiled designs and a 64-box of Crayolas.
View some of the tiled rooftops here, and innards will follow soon.
Gorgeous tiles, Gayle, in your gorgeous photographs. Thanks!
