The Chapel of Peace is as it's titled very peaceful and a spectacular view of The City and bay and our guide Sebastian Hernandez Ricardo owner of Acapulco For All was just wonderful and an extremely knowledgeable guide of the area and culture.

We were so impressed with this place, it had a surreal feeling about it and the history was written in english and we arrived as a sermon was taking place. We loved this place and will treasure it in our memories forever.

Very peaceful. Great story that illustrates the pride of Acapulan people. Wonderful views. The road up is through upscale neighborhood - interesting houses built into the hillside.

Very peaceful with a beautiful view. Located high above Acapulco in an area of very expensive homes. The chapel itself is very plain inside.

Cool, peaceful and beautiful. Must be able to walk up steep inclines, though. The chapel does hold services, so if you know ahead of time, then schedule a taxi to attend.
