Panorama of Taxco, Guerrero
This panoramic view of Taxco, a colonial silver mining center in what is now the state of Guerrero, was shot from the Hotel de la Borda (named after a famous 18th-century mine owner José de la Borda). The large church in the center of the picture is Santa Prisca, which was built with money provided by Borda himself.
