VIDEOExtreme and persistent drought in Mexico’s Guanajuato region made the Virgen de los Dolores temple, built in the mid-1800s, the first surface after 40 years.
When a huge dam was built in 1979, the Mexican temple was flooded. A reservoir was created which flooded El Zangarro and the entire area around it. All residents were forced to leave the area, he says Mexico News Daily read.
“History tells us that it was very difficult for people to leave the area,” says historian Dulce Vazques. “A few people resisted anyway until they were finally faced with reality. The water would gradually cover the whole city. “
The Temple of the Virgen de los Dolores has been underwater for 40 years, but the lingering drought in the city of Guanajuato and low water levels mean the temple is visible again. Those interested can visit the temple by boat. A press photographer captured the magnificent temple on screen.
