Mission San Xavier del Bac

Took a serendipitous trip to Mission San Xavier del Bac, located on a Native American reservation in southern Tucson. The incredible architecture from 1692 and the interior paintings are quite impressive for having been created nearly 300 years ago.

Notice the difference in the towers? One is refurbished to show how the mission would have looked at the time of its creation while the other is kept in its original condition to keep the exact materials untouched for historians.
