Visit the Cathedral Santuario de Guadalupe, a stunning Victorian Gothic cathedral undergoing a complete restoration to bring it back to its original splendor. This Shrine is the second-largest congregation in the entire nation. While there, you can learn about the essential themes of Catholic Social Tradition, centered around the universal principles of human dignity, the common good, subsidiarity, and solidarity.

Quietly reflect on one of the most spiritually-based art forms at the Crow Collection of Asian Art. The collection combines pieces from China, Japan, India, and Southeast Asia, each with distinct cultural and artistic traditions. The museum is committed to promoting learning and dialogue about the arts and cultures of Asia, and they are preserving and sharing these treasures with the public. By fostering compassion and inclusivity through their work, the museum is helping to build a greater awareness and shared sense of what it means to be human.
