¡Welcome to the Tourist Route of Faith - Juquila!
Catholic religion is a strong influence in the daily life of the region; it provides social cohesion and offers spiritual support to its people.
If you are driven by fervor, you are in one of the best places in the world to spend your vacation.
On the Route of Faith, two colors stand out along your journey: green, which is part of the unparalleled scenery of its mountains and valleys, and blue from its rivers and streams.
The route spans three regions of the state of Oaxaca; it begins in the Central Valleys, continues through the Sierra Sur, and ends in the Coastal region. This journey offers a diverse range of natural attractions that remain unexploited, colonial landmarks, and, above all, the Sanctuary of the Immaculate Virgin of Juquila.
