From the ancient streets of Tenochtitlan to the mystic realm of Spanish saints, this caption takes you on a captivating journey. Immerse yourself in the vibrant tapestry of Mexico's past as we explore a map drawn by Alonso de Santa Cruz in 1560. The intricate details transport us back to the grandeur of Tenochtitlan, its sprawling streets and majestic temples. Continuing our voyage, we encounter Saint John of the Cross, a Spanish mystic whose profound spirituality is captured in an enchanting engraving. His teachings transcend time and guide seekers towards enlightenment. Venturing further south, we stumble upon Argentina's Cave of Hands in Santa Cruz.

Shifting gears to La Palma in Spain's Canary Islands, we discover another facet of Cruz. This picturesque island reveals itself through an intricately crafted map showcasing its unique geography and cultural heritage. Our exploration takes us across oceans to colonial Mexico where Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz emerges as a beacon of knowledge amidst societal constraints. As Hernan Cortes' niece dressed as a nun, she defied expectations and became one of history's most celebrated intellectuals. Leaving behind Latin America for North Africa, Oran beckons with Marshal Foch Square nestled against Santa Cruz Hills.
