On the Grid : Plaza La Conchita

"The Chapel of the Immaculate Conception Church, better known as "La Conchita" offers you the chance to enjoy a quiet afternoon in a far corner of Coyoacán. When the Spanish conquistador Hernan Cortes arrived in Coyoacán he built the Church of "Conchita" on what once was a pre-Hispanic ceremonial center where the first mass was held in the region. On many occasions the Church of La Conchita has been remodeled, and today, for restoration work, is closed. However, you can walk around the square and delight the colonial landscape in the middle of the city. In streets around the square you will find cafés and local shops that will make you spend a very pleasant time in the neighbourhood. Side of the street Higuera you can relax with a delicious coffee or ice cream in businesses that are already tradition and delight with unique items in the bazaars of the area." - Leolab
