Tlachihualtepetl & Popocaepetl.. The two peak friends

            Explored Sep 12, 2018 #107

The Iglesia de Nuestra Señora de los Remedios (Our Lady of Remedies Church) is a 16th-century Mexican Catholic parish church built atop the Tlachihualtepetl pyramid in the municipality of Cholula located in the central Mexican state of Puebla. The church was built with brada stone and embellished with 24-carat gilded panels and shims, called laminilla. It has an altar in the neoclassical style.[1] It was built between May 1574 and August 1575 and consecrated on March 25, 1629. The base on which the church is built one of the largest pyramids of the ancient world, being 54 metres (177 ft) high, covering 54 acres and shaped by several superimposed structures over the course of six centuries.

Popocatepetl, in the back, is one of Mexico's most active volcanoes. After almost 50 years of dormancy, "Popo" came back to life in 1994 and has since then been producing powerful explosions at irregular intervals.
In the past centuries befor European invasions, large eruptions produced giant mud flows that have buried Atzteque settlements, even entire pyramids.
