    Un lugar muy hermoso y con historia. Fue grato encontrar una exposición fotógrafa sobre la crisis migratoria en Tapachula que los lugares no son sólo para selfies, también para generar reflexiones. ¡Felicidades!

    📍Sitio turístico pequeño pero que vale la pena conocer sí es que te gustan los detalles. Aquí te cobran una cooperación voluntaria, aquí enseñan distintos tipos de arte, desde la música e instrumentos musicales, hasta artes plásticas, hay exposición de fotografía y hay un restaurante dentro. También cuentan con sanitarios.

    Very interesting building, currently undergoing incremental renovation, and cultural center with a great history. It's early significance is referred to in one of the interviews in "Every Woman is a World" by Gayle Walker and Kiki Suárez. The former teacher's college has been slowly returning to life over the past several years. It now houses a pleasant restaurant, Nostalgia, that features Oaxacan food and, in January 2022, a wonderful photography exhibit, with photos by several nationally known photographers as well as dreamlike photos taken in indigenous towns nearby. There are a few specialty shops with clothing and crafts that have entrances from the street. The complex is definitely worth a visit; it's obviously a labor of love by those involved in restoring and creating a cultural center that's off the beaten path.

    There is an excellent photography show, a series of photos, Gente de Chiapas, people of ChiapaZ, by renowned local photo, Cisco. Show lovenly currated by Bats'i photo archive. Amazing structure. Lovely refurbished by Na Bolom. Good place for rotating art, music and cultural events. La Ensenanza keeps getting better and better. There are now shops and restaurants, a fabulous center of photography, Bats'i and even musical classes. This cultural center is the real McCoy. Go and be amazed.

    Hermoso edificio, con mucha historia detrás. La exposición temporal que tenían es sobre artistas jóvenes de Chiapas. Vale la pena para descubrir más de la cultura de San Cristóbal.

    (Translated by Google) Last December I visited this place with my family. "La Enseñanza" was the normal school of San Cristobal, currently it is a site that is responsible for spreading culture. On our visit we toured the courtyards of this house, decorated with old furniture and walls with photographs of characters that have been an important part of education in Chiapas, we were able to listen to a jazz concert and learn that the space is available for social events (not I know how good the latter is). Historical sites like this are worth a look. (Original) En diciembre pasado visité con mi familia este lugar. "La Enseñanza" fue la escuela normal de San Cristobal, actualmente es un sitio que se encarga de difundir la cultura. En nuestra visita recorrimos los patios de esta casa, decorados con muebles antiguos y paredes con fotografías de personajes que han sido parte importante de la educación en Chiapas, pudimos escuchar un concierto de jazz y enterarnos de que el espacio esta disponible para eventos sociales (no sé que tan bueno sea esto último). Vale la pena dar un vistazo a sitios históricos como este.
