By Christian Heck, Gabi Förster, Jürgen Putz, et al.

In this book are shown the colonial churches of Yucatan Peninsula in nine trip routes with impressive pictures and texts full of information about historical facts. Besides the churches in Merida, this illustrated book portrays with detail all the Christian constructions in the tourist-trodden "Ruta de los conventos" which is well connected with the tourist resorts of the zone. Also, the convents and churches of the Puuc region, well known for its mayas s ruins, are collected in this book. The wonderful pictures and the texts of the book invite to the readers to observe and admire and, perhaps, to visit these singular historical constructions.
