Los 7 pueblos fantasma más raros y aislados de Querétaro

In 1750, a Spanish friar arrived in the Sierra Gorda of Querétaro with an idea no other missionary had ever conceived: to evangelize the Chichimeca Pame people in their own language, give them land, organize cooperatives, and allow them to decorate church facades with whatever they wished. Rabbits. Mermaids with indigenous faces. Ears of corn alongside Catholic saints. The result is five missions that UNESCO declared a World Heritage Site in 2003. And the people who built them with their own hands are nearly extinct. That same friar, Junípero Serra, later left Querétaro for California and founded the missions of San Diego, San Francisco, and Monterey. What he did before, in the Sierra Gorda of Querétaro, is almost unknown. Querétaro is also home to the hill where, on June 19, 1867, the only man to rule Mexico as emperor was executed. Today, that hill is a public park where people walk their dogs. True story. Verified facts.
