The city also has a rich heritage of monuments, most notably the Cathedral of La Encarnación, built in a Gothic and Baroque style, and built on top of an old mosque.

Visit the cave district and the Tropolis, a museum located in an original cave, learn about cave dwellings and how people lived and still live, experiencing their traditions and craft professions.
