Parroquia de San José

Orange-and-blue Baroque parish church decorated with Talavera tile

Address Calle 1 de Mayo 4, Centro, Tlaxcala

Parroquia de San José is hard to miss: orange walls, blue Talavera tile, and an 18th-century Baroque facade a short walk from the main square. It once served as the cathedral before the diocesan seat shifted away.

It is a quick stop, but a vivid one, especially if you are tracing Tlaxcala's smaller colonial churches rather than only the main cathedral.
