Oaxaca |
|
|
It is the capital of
the region that has the
same name. Its beauty
and historic value have
made the city meritorious
of the status of Historic
Patrimony of Mankind by
the UNESCO. The city is
known for its religious
buildings of several periods
among which we would like
to point out the Catedral
and the Iglesia de Santo
Domingo de Guzman, in
Mexican baroque style.
Those who care for interesting
and unique souvenirs should
stop at the main square:
"Zocalo" and take a look
at the many artisan street
shops. Near the city we
would like to point out
two interesting places:
Monte Alban , also declared
as a patrimony of mankind,
where tombs and Pyramids
of the Zapothec and Mixthec
cultures could be appreciated,
and the Tree of Tule that,
with a circumference of
58 metres and a height
of 42 meters, is the largest
tree in the world.

Mérida
and Cancun |
|
|
Merida and Cancun are both
located in the eastern coast
of the Yucatan Peninsula .
Merida , the " White City
," fascinates its visitors
with its beautiful churches,
lively squares and old colonial
homes. At the main square
we highlight the city hall,
a beautiful church and the
colonial Casa de Montejo.
The lively Cancun is, on
the other hand, the perfect
destination for the tourist
that seeks beautiful beaches
and entertainment. The city
welcomes its visitors on a
great tourist infrastructure
and a great nightlife. Cancun
is located on a land strip
that divides the Caribbean
Sea from the coast and offers
relaxing beaches and thrilling
excursions to the nearby islands:
The Isla Mujeres and the Isla
Contoy.

Morelia
and Guadalajara |
|
|
Historic Patrimony of
Mankind, the beautiful
Morella was built in the
fifteen hundreds and it
is located in the state
of Michoacan. The city
is a great representation
of the Hispanic colonial
time, and at the centre
there are fascinating
baroque structures built
with red stones.
Guadalajara is, on the
other hand, the capital
of the state Jalisco and
it is worldwide known
as the "most Mexican city
of Mexico ". Indeed, the
typical Mexican hat and
the Mariachi music come
from this city. At the
second largest city in
the country we recommend
to visit the works of
art in neoclassical style
El Hospicio Cabanas, built
as a community centre,
where Murals by Jose Clemente
Orozco can be appreciated.

Cuernavaca
and Taxco |
|
|
These are two of the
cities that make up the
"Via de la Plata": the
long road that hosted
the production and commerce
of silver. The stops along
this road were in fact
the worthy sources of
Silver.
Taxco is the real capital
of silver and the centre
that offers the best artisan
work. The city rises on
top of a hill inside the
state of Guerrero. To
visit: the baroque churches
of the centre of the city,
particularly the Catedral
de Santa Prisca.
Cuernavaca is the capital
of the state Morelos and
it is known for its great
weather that has made
it a great vacation destination
for centuries. Make sure
not to miss the residence
of El Conquistador Hernan
Cortes, the residence
of the emperor Maximilian
of Augsburg, and the murals
of Diego Rivera.
