The side of this church is lit beautifully in the morning sun, as if calling us to the rich history of what the building holds. This is the side of the church called La Compañia Templo del Espíritu Santo. It’s said that la Catrina de San Juan is buried beneath the church. Taken as a young girl and sold into slavery, she made her mark in Mexico by sharing her Asian influence in her clothing design.

She was named “La China Poblana”. Her dress style is  a white blouse and colorful embroidered red and green skirt. It’s still considered symbolic Mexican attire. She was loved by many because of her generosity, and beauty.
