Gracias David. The missions are impressive indeed. Timeless as the photo shows
So right, you are!
Since I began focusing on the missions in the latter years of my Baja travels, I have revised how to show them in a way to increase interest or just
awareness.
They certainly give me a project to play with in my retirement!
My first devoted website (VivaBaja.com) pages for them was: www.vivabaja.com/missions1 = The Jesuit missions (#1-#17). Listed in the order of their founding (Loreto to Santa María).
NEXT, I made a single page to show the missions' latest photo with basic history and location from north to south, as one might travel down the
peninsula, with a link to my Baja Bound article on it: https://vivabaja.com/mission-site-photos/ plus a page to show the visitas, also from north to south: https://vivabaja.com/mission-site-photos/2/
This new project is a more complete page or 'album' for each mission with both mine and historic photos, mission floor plans by INAH and Peveril
Meigs, maps, and the chapter from my 2016 book, Baja California Land of Missions, recently out-of-print: https://vivabaja.com/mission-albums/
Each mission has one page or album and a couple missions have two, to show both sites: (El Rosario, Arriba & Abajo) and (Calamajué & Santa
María).
