The walled city has massive walls that can be entered through seven gates. In the old times, only Spaniards and Spanish mestizos were allowed to live inside. The walled city contained 12 churches, chapels, convents, monasteries, and palaces. Elegant houses with wrought balconies were residences of the elites.
