Ruta de los Conventos - The Convent Route
torre campanario es de tres cuerpos, en el primero se encuentra el coro, en el segundo las campanas y en el tercero está empotrado un reloj; la parte superior tiene como remate una cúpula. Este templo es de gran importancia para Yuriria, pues en tormo a él giran muchas costumbres y tradiciones del poblado. Como la peregrinación anual por las celebraciones a la virgen de Guadalupe, cuya fiesta principal se celebra cada 12 de diciembre. O el novenario dedicado a la Virgen, que comienza el día 3 de diciembre y culmina el día 12 del mismo mes. En el primer día de celebración del novenario, la calle Morelos se adorna con cordeles colocados en los techos de las casas y con luces de colores. Ya en la tarde, una gran peregrinación comienza a recorrer un trayecto que se detiene
aproximadamente las 10 de la noche. Los fieles, durante su andar, van degustando los diversos platillos que se venden a lo largo del camino. Finalmente, la fiesta termina con la quema del castillo u la música de bandas locales y foráneas.
the construction was led by an Italian architect. Its style has a tendency to the Neoclassical. The construction time of the church was stopped due to the conflicts generated by the Mexican Revolution. Works resumed after 1929, and in charge of them was Friar Miguel F. Zavala, who finished the church in 1945. The consecration of the church belonged to Gerardo Anaya Bonilla and Diez, Bishop of San Luis Potosí. The floor plan is that of a Latin cross; its facade made out of quarry stone, has a particular aspect, because it highlights its bell tower placed in the middle which is supported by pillars that form an arch, which form four columns. From
the front bow comes a triangular pediment, which is the main entrance to the church. The bell tower has three sections, on the first one the choir is situated, the bells in the second and on the third one, a clock is embedded, the upper part has as its pinnacle a dome. This church is of great importance to Yuriria because around it many fairs and traditions of the village are held, as the annual pilgrimage to celebrate the Virgin of Guadalupe, held each December 12th, or the novenary to the Virgin which begins on December 3rd and ends on March 12th. On the first day of the novenary, Morelos Street is decorated with strings held on the roofs of the houses and lights. In the afternoon, a great pilgrimage
starts to go on a procession that stops about 10 at night. The faithful people during their walk go sampling the various dishes that are sold along the way. Finally, the festival ends with fireworks like the burning of castle figure and the music of local and foreign bands.
