Lava Covered San Juan Parangaricutiro Church Mexico

Tourists clammer around the steeple of San Juan Parangaricutiro church poking up out of a sea of dried lava rock in the remote village of San Juan Parangaricutiro, Michoacan, Mexico. This church is the only remaining structure left buried in the eight-year eruption of the Paricutin volcano which consumed two villages in 1943 and covered the region in lava and ash.
