This was an amazing cathedral. I have been around the world twice and seen hundreds of cathedrals but this was definately top 3... It should be a definite stop...

Serene
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 01/04/05
We covered up in long sleeves and pants and left a small donation upon entering. This seemed to be very much appreciated. This is a beautiful serene little church with fabulous exterior architecture and round stained glass windows. The creche scene this Christmas was truly beautiful. Make sure to stop by this church when in PV!

there church compared to ours
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 02/09/05
The church of guadalupe was breath taking , compared to most churches in illionois. I was very upset relizing that the churches here are way to modern. The churches now are about money, money, money. You should see the beautiful statues that they have, and the respect the people have for there church in puerta vallarta.

Throw away your watch!

The church is beautiful and an important part of the culture here. Our first night though, it was hard to sleep as the bells gong every 15 minutes, and sometimes for no reason at all. But we nicknamed it El Ka-Bong and laughed every time we heard it. The church is now a great memory of our awesome time in PV.

the cathederal de Guadalupe is an excellent choice when visiting pv....in a city of thousands of tourists, and local shops selling everything from t-shirts to shot-glasses, appears a "diamond in a modern day rough"....you could just feel the culture and the tradition in how much emphasis was put into the building of this beautiful ...

Guadalupe Beauty
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 02/10/05
I love the whole area around the church. It's peaceful, but just steps away from the zocalo.
There's also a great restaurant on the north side of the street leading from the square to the church. It's frequented by businessmen, and the food is plentiful, cheap, and tasty.

Wonderful and inspiring
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 01/06/06
A good view of old Vallarta and the beautiful church and devotion of the local people. Many Catholic churches in the area St James being closest to the Lady are Awe Inspiring. Recommend a tour be established to all churches. We did see two nice churches in villages on the sierra Madre tour. This tour (Vallarta Adventures) was bad but had some ...

Worth a visit!

OLG is a beautiful cathedral located right across from the main plaza in downtown Vallarta. The interior is white plaster and marble with gold accents and beautiful stained glass. You can hear the church bells toll on the hour. Also across the street, you will find several little religious shops selling bless ed religious items. During the festival ...
