Guanajuato

Guanajuato, a city in a valley surrounded by mountains in central Mexico, has prospered since the Aztec era, thanks to the silver production that still takes place today. The baroque churches and colonial buildings built during the Spanish colonial period with abundant wealth as a backdrop are painted with colorful colors such as red, yellow, blue and pink, creating a unique and beautiful cityscape. One of the most popular ways to experience this historic city like a jewel box is to view the entire city from a small hill or take a leisurely tour through the narrow alleys.
