- David E16 contributionsMust see!!!This was an incredibly beautiful church and is the center of SMA. Even if you’re not religious you will admire at the architecture, but if you are religious you love the spirituality. It was beautiful to hear the bells chime every once in a while. Outside in the Centro they have mariachi music every night of the week.Visited March 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 20 March 2023
- Cecil JonesPuerto Vallarta, Mexico213 contributionsThe Only Gothic Cathedral In MexicoWhat a gem and you don’t have to travel to Europe to see a gothic cathedral. Just visit San Miguel de Allende and see the only gothic cathedral in all of Mexico. The church was beautifully decorated and highlighted in gold and silver; which makes perfect sense as San Miguel was a major mining town for hundreds of years. If visiting churches is your thing then you will not be disappointed.Visited March 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 28 March 2023
- TandTSwitzerlandZurich, Switzerland1,138 contributionsBeautifulIn the very center of the city, this is really a very beautiful church. It is a Foto spot and you can take great pictures from different locations, and you see all the beautiful colors of the facade. Inside it is also nice. Definitely a must see in San Miguel.Visited November 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 4 November 2023

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I’m not Catholic but let me tell you this church is stunning. The detail and preservation are something else. We really enjoyed walking the property and taking in all its beauty.

Stunningly Beautiful San Miguel de Allendes Church is the heart of this ancient city. The architecture is fabulous! We enjoyed the lively activity in the square at the steps of the church, listening to Mariachi and eating ice cream.

We are trying to get to San Miguel de Allende from the Moroleón area. Does anyone know what the safest and easiest way to do so would be? We asked one his company, but the into route there arrives around 9pm. We’d prefer a daytime route.

are you talking about Leon, the city where there is the main airport? if yes, there is buses and shuttles to and from San Miguel to Leon. Very cheap!
