The Spanish, French and German influence on the old town's architecture and culture is something to behold.Once you leave the old town, you'll feel as though you're time traveling, as modern Mazatlan is just blocks away.

Inside, baroque altars, murals adorned in gold, crystal chandeliers and a Parisian organ.Finally, visit the bustling downtown market, where you'll be able to shop and watch locals go about their daily lives.
