In September 2014, I spent five days in and around the city of Santiago de Querétaro, Mexico.  Here are some photos from my trip:

    Love the second street scene photo! The colors are gorgeous and the paint peeling off the building has a neat effect! Bueno!

    Thanks to you I found the name of Temple of Santo Domingo. When I was a rookie a few years back I didn’t always note the name of the churches I shot. Why do you call them ‘Temples’ and not ‘Iglesias’ ?

    1. Peter says:

      I think that’s a typo on my part, and should be “Templo”. Across Mexico, I’ve seen both Templo and Iglesia used, sometimes interchangeably. However, on the maps of Queretaro, they do use Templo, so that’s what I’ve gone with.
