While visiting Guadalajara, stop by the Cabañas Cultural Institute—a UNESCO World Heritage Site recognized for its stunning architecture and history. Designed by architect Manuel Tolsá and built at the beginning of the 19th century, it is one of the oldest and largest charitable complexes of New Spain. It originally functioned as an orphanage and a home for the aged, infirm, and destitute. In 1980, the building ceased to function as an orphanage and is now used as a cultural center and museum.
