Batopilas - Lost Cathedral 1

After travelling almost 4km along the dirt road you eventually come to a bend where the glistening, whitewashed contours of the solitary church seem to materialize amidst the vastness of clear blue sky and the greenery of canyon walls and rocky outcroppings. The location of the church at the widest part of the Batopilas river suggests that it was once the site of a fairly large native community.
