Templo de Santo Domingo. Puebla, Mexico
Posted by razzbuffnik on 24th May 2007
The stunning baroque Templo de Santo Domingo of Puebla was built between 1571 and 1659.
The bright colour of its exterior gives no indication of the hallucinatory interior.
The stuccowork inside, which goes from chest height to the ceiling, is incredibly ornate.
Its best to go in and just sit down or you risk falling over as your eyes go upwards and upwards and then start traveling down a wall behind you taking you backwards.
