"Inside"

This picture was taken inside the Guadalajara City Hall building; it was built between 1949 and 1952, by the direction of the Architect Vicente Mendiola. It has typical “tapatíos” elements in its structure as the central courtyard, the passages and the arches, giving it the perfect colonial style. The portals and the Tuscan columns show the old architecture of the city.

"Fuente de las Serpiente Encantadas" 

These sculptural spirals found in a fountain. They are very original, because his style is unique. They have a perfect symmetry, and have an emphasis towards the center by the two side towers. They are called "enchanted snakes" due to the shape they have and their mysticism.

"Instituto Cultural Cabañas"  Building completed in 1843, is neoclassical. Here are exhibitions and cultural events. Before this building was a shelter for disadvantaged children, now is a house of culture where they are taught various arts workshops and events are different. You can see perfectly the style in its facade, reliefs and decorations. The dome-tipped needle is remarkable.
