La Villa de Guadalupe and the original older Basilica on the Avenue of the Americas. Originally, this was the site of a shrine to a mother goddess. The conquistadors destroyed the original chapel and adopted the location into a parrish eventually building a second Basilica (shown here) that was completed in 1709. Due to a sinking foundation, the "New Basilica" was constructed next to it from 1974 to 1976 creating a dichotomy of old and new. Hey - you can't tell the players without a scorecard!
