Take a trip to the region’s past and visit some historical Misión churches. The Misión de Nuestra Señora de Loreto Conchó can be visited in the downtown area and is not to be missed. It was established in 1697, although the lack of access to water proved problematic in terms of agriculture. Though the mission was closed in 1820, it can still be visited today and is a popular tourist destination. Nearby Misión San Francisco Javier de Viggé-Biaund is also a popular destination for tourists who want to learn about the area’s history. This mission was dedicated in 1899 after the Jesuits discovered that Misión de Nuestra Señora de Loreto Conchó couldn’t sustain itself agriculturally in the long term. Though it was deserted in 1817, now it has been restored by Mexico’s National Institute of Anthropology and History and offers a beautiful interior for exploration.
