The Plaza de Armas in San Miguel de Allende is better known as the Jardín Principal or Plaza Allende. It is the heart of the old town and one of the most important meeting places for locals and visitors alike. The plaza is located directly in front of the famous Parroquia de San Miguel Arcángel, the city's landmark. It is home to the first free municipal parliament in the Spanish kingdom—a symbol of the Mexican independence movement.

The Templo de la Purísima Concepción, also known as "Las Monjas," is one of the most important religious and architectural buildings in San Miguel de Allende. Its foundation was initiated by María Josefa Lina de la Canal y Hervás in 1751, who, at just 15 years old, expressed her desire to establish a convent. The style is a blend of Baroque and Neoclassicism.

The church is considered one of the finest examples of the Churrigueresque style in San Miguel de Allende. Built by the Franciscans starting in 1778, it was completed over two decades later. The architecture combines elements of Baroque, Rococo, and Churrigueresque styles, inspired by the Spanish architect José Churriguera.

Follow the trail beside the creek to / from Frabrica La Aurora

On the north side of the river there’s a trail down by the side of Vasconselo’s school that leads to the Fabrica. Enjoy.

It’s always a treat to pass by the Parroquia and the Jardin Allende. During daylight hours and sunset it’s always teaming with people — locals and tourists, mariachi, and vendors; the place is alive. It generally quietens down a few hours after sunset, with folks passing by to take in the beauty. Into the evening, and the early hours of the morning is when you’ll find solitude here. Enjoy.

Always beautiful to pass by the Parroquia and the Jardin Allende. During daylight hours and early evening it’s always busy, full of locals, tourists, mariachi and more — a couple hours after sunset it quietens down, and in the early hours of the morning it’s silent.
