POTD: San Pablo Villa de Mitla

From 2025 06 03 Oaxaca

Today's photo-of-the-day was taken in the town of San Pablo Villa de Mitla in Oaxaca, Mexico. According to Wikipedia, "The main attraction is the ruins of the pre-Hispanic city of Mitla, which is best known for its buildings decorated with mosaics of small flat stones that fit together to create designs, especially fretwork." Of course, there's a Christian church built on the ruins.

Bonus photos are after the jump.

A puzzle built for the gods.
Sturdy through the years."
