Guerrero Viejo, September 9th, 2000 [Faith lesson archive]

Scott Stripling and family visit Guerrero Viejo, Mexico.

Guerrero Viejo, also known as Old Guerrero, is a ghost town in Tamaulipas, Mexico, that was flooded by the Falcon Reservoir in 1953. It was originally founded in 1750 as Revilla and later renamed in honor of Vicente Guerrero, a hero of Mexican independence. The town's ruins are occasionally revealed when the reservoir's water levels recede, making it a popular site for photography and historical exploration.
