HIERVE EL AGUA (Water Boils)

Our old grandparents kept intimate dealings with the land. For them the earth was a living being that felt and loved them. They maintained a mother-children relationship. As all living beings, earth has parts more sensitive than others.

Unquestionably that in the valleys of Oaxaca emanates from the depth of its bowels, an energy that radiates to all living beings and connects with the sky. Ancestral divine and mystical bridge. Oaxaca is a place where earth and sky kiss. Hierve el agua is an essential place for this love affair between man, earth and the universe.

At the top of the Oaxaca mountains, in one of the most important festivals of our culture, in the early evening, with a clean and clear sky, with a beautiful Moon big and generous, in the center of a pantheon, I had the opportunity to speak, perhaps the most moving talk about our old grandparents, that I have been able to pronounce in my life.

OAXACA HOUSE OF CULTURE


Written by Guillermo Marin on .

One of the oldest houses of culture in the country. It was founded in the year of 1971. It is located in the former convent of our Lady of the seven princes or Los Angeles.

This imposing building, dates back to the beginning of the 18th century and was completed in 1781. It was created to receive indigenous maidens; however, earthquakes destroyed it and was abandoned for many years.

It was until the middle of the 1960s, that the building was rebuilt, first to house the School of Arts and Crafts and finally the House of Culture.

The former convent has two floors and patios; the Temple of Baroque style, has in its main altarpiece an image of the Virgin of Angels with the seven archangels: St. Uriel, San Rafael, San Miguel, San Gabriel, San Ragüel, San Yeudiel and San Baraquiel. It has a small chapel where the Blessed Sacrament is venerated.
