3d model of Catedral Metropolitana in Mexico City, Mexico. The Metropolitan Cathedral of the Assumption of the Most Blessed Virgin Mary into Heaven is the cathedral church of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Mexico. It is situated atop the former Aztec sacred precinct near the Templo Mayor on the northern side of the Plaza de la Constitución (Zócalo) in the historic center of Mexico City. The cathedral was built in sections from 1573 to 1813, around the original church that was constructed soon after the Spanish conquest of Tenochtitlan, eventually replacing it entirely. (Wikipedia)
