EDITORS COMMENTS
The Pocito Temple or Chapel, located on the eastern slope of Tepeyac Hill in Mexico City, Mexico, is a beautiful Baroque-style church that holds significant historical and religious significance. Dating back to the late 18th century, the temple was built to house the site of the spring waters, which are believed to have miraculous properties. The waters are closely connected to the site of the apparitions of the Virgin of Guadalupe, one of Mexico's most revered religious figures. The temple, which was completed in 1791, stands as a testament to Mexico's rich cultural heritage. The stunning architecture of the temple is a feast for the eyes, with intricate details and ornate decorations that reflect the Baroque style of the time. The temple's facade features a beautiful portico, topped with a dome, and adorned with columns and intricate carvings. The temple sits at the foot of Tepeyac Hill, which has been a place of pilgrimage for centuries. According to legend, the Virgin Mary appeared to an indigenous man named Juan Diego in 1531, urging him to build a temple on the site. The temple's location near the spring waters adds to its significance, as the waters are believed to have healing properties and are a source of spiritual renewal for many visitors. This photograph, taken in the 1920s, captures the temple in all its glory, with the lush greenery of the hill in the background. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to imagine the pilgrims who have made their way to the temple over the centuries, seeking solace, healing, and spiritual enlightenment.
