Santo Domingo de Guzman
We visited the Cathedral de Santa Domingo de Guzman
on our first day in Oaxaca, and those pictures are included here, with the Ex-Convent Museum.
It's a beautiful church that was originally with the convent. The inside of it is lavishly
decorated with gold leaf and dozens of statues of biblical figures. The ceiling is an incredible bas
relief showing the family tree of the ruling family, the Guzmans, that came over from Spain and
founded the convent and church.
