Catedral Mazatlán Basílica de la Inmaculada Concepción的点评
点评:The Basilica is located in the central of Mazatlan. Built on an ancient Indian Temple, it stands out with its Baroque, Moorish and Gothic influences. It has an eclectic, yet very beautiful look. The best place to view the Catedral, is from Vista Hermosa up on the hillside. Virgin de la Purisima Conception is the Patron saint of Mazatlan, and you can see her above the altar in a protective pose. Due to the French trying to (unsuccessfully) recolonialize Mexico in the 1860's, The Catedral wasn't finished until 1899. The Catedral has a very impressive organ that was built in Paris by Aristide Cavaille-Coll. He was probably one of the best organ builders during this time. I was told that the foundation of the Basilica was paid by the Jewish Community of Mazatlan. Being grateful for the donation they incorporated the Star of David on each of the 28 stainglassed windows. Opposite from the Basilica there is a park with its own history. Surrounded by a lot of foliage, its a great place to find some shade.
翻译:大教堂位于马萨特兰市中心。它建于一座古老的印度寺庙之上,以其巴洛克、摩尔和哥特式的影响而脱颖而出。它具有不拘一格但非常美丽的外观。观赏大教堂的最佳地点是从山坡上的维斯塔赫尔莫萨 (Vista Hermosa)。 Virgin de la Purisima Conception 是马萨特兰的守护神,您可以看到她在祭坛上方摆出保护姿势。由于法国人在 1860 年代试图重新殖民墨西哥(但未成功),大教堂直到 1899 年才完工。大教堂有一个非常令人印象深刻的管风琴,由阿里斯蒂德·卡瓦耶-科尔 (Aristide Cavaille-Coll) 在巴黎建造。他可能是当时最好的管风琴制造者之一。有人告诉我,大教堂的基础是由马萨特兰犹太社区支付的。为了感谢捐赠,他们在 28 个彩色玻璃窗上都镶嵌了大卫之星。大教堂对面有一个拥有自己历史的公园。周围有很多树叶,是寻找阴凉的好地方。
