In the cathedral, a baroque facade with a circular pediment is amalgamated with neo-gothic towers, which together form one of the most characteristic profiles of the urban skyline of Guadalajara.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the Cathedral is much more than a beautiful building. Its influence on a very devout society has shaped the history of the city. The Cathedral is also the subject of many fascinating legends, although some are based on historical events, they all have a touch of fantasy that makes them so interesting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-1 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link no-border-radius\" href=\"https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/catedral-de-guadalajara\/\" title=\"catedral de Guadalajara\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read More<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-top is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:75%\">\n<p><strong>Learn more about the Cathedral, its history and its legends.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"cruz\">Cross of Squares<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Cruz-De-Plazas-Guadalajara.jpg\" alt=\"Cruz de Plazas , Cross of Squares.

Its construction required the demolition of hundreds of buildings, many of them with historic and cultural significance. In the name of modernity they were teared down, to clear the space now occupied by <em>Plaza de la Liberaci\u00f3n<\/em>, <em>Plaza Guadalajara <\/em>and <em>Plaza de la Rotonda de los Jaliciences Ilustres<\/em>.

It is known by the people of Guadalajara as &#8220;Hospicio Caba\u00f1as&#8221; because for many years it was an asylum. It is a neoclassical style building, with a design of simple lines, from which its beautiful central dome stands out. The Caba\u00f1as harmoniously combines closed and open spaces. It has 106 rooms, 78 corridors, two chapels, and 23 symmetrically aligned interior patios. The building, which is the masterpiece of prominent architect Manuel Tols\u00e1, was recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1997.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But the appeal of the Caba\u00f1as Cultural Institute goes beyond its original architectural design. In the &#8217;30s of the 20th century, the Jalisco muralist Jos\u00e9 Clemente Orozco was invited to decorate his walls and ceilings. The artist painted 53 murals, including his most important work, among which &#8220;The Man on Fire&#8221; stands out in the dome. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Visiting the incredible site is definitely a must on every bucket list of things to do and see in Guadalajara.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-5 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link no-border-radius\" href=\"https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/hospicio-cabanas\/\" title=\"Hospicio Caba\u00f1as\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read More<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:75%\">\n<p id=\"tw-target-text\"><strong>Learn more about Hospicio Caba\u00f1as, its murals and what you need to know to visit it<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-very-light-gray-color has-text-color\"><p style=\"background-color:#000000\" class=\"white-link\">\u00bfViajas con Ni\u00f1os?

Lake Chapala is the largest lake in Mexico by extension, covering an area of 1112 square kilometers. It is located Southeast of Guadalajara, about 35 minutes by car. Lake Chapala has always been the favorite weekend destination for the people of Guadalajara. Thanks to its excellent climate throughout the year, its beautiful landscapes, and its quiet pace of life, it is also an important retirement destination. The Chapala riverside is particularly popular among retirees from the United States and Canada. Thus, it is not uncommon to see advertisements in English on the streets and shops catering to the foreign community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the shore of the lake, there are many picturesque little towns. Town Chapala is the largest and a good place to start your tour. Start by visiting the waterfront, walk until you reach the pier known as \u201cRinconcito del Amor.\u201d At the end of the pier, there is a lighthouse, from which you will have incredible views of the lake. This place is also a great spot for a souvenir selfie. You can also hire a boat ride here, there are different rides to choose from, depending on what you want to visit and the time you want to spend. You can even have the option to visit the \u201cMezcala\u201d Island, to see the remains of a fort from the 19th century. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do not leave Town Chapala, without trying the delicious ice creams from the stands on the boardwalk. There are dozens of flavors, from classic to seasonal fruit, and even some more exotic flavors like tequila.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-6 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link no-border-radius\" href=\"https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/lago-de-chapala\/\" title=\"Lago de Chapala\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read More<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p><strong>Where to eat and where to sleep in Chapala<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-5834876758300015\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-5834876758300015\" data-ad-slot=\"3818983367\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:45px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ajijic<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"505\" src=\"https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Ajijic-1-1024x505.jpg\" alt=\"Visit Ajijic Mexico\" class=\"wp-image-724\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Ajijic-1-1024x505.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Ajijic-1-300x148.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Ajijic-1-768x379.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Ajijic, con el lago de Chapala al fondo.

End your day in Ajijic with a stroll along the boardwalk, from where a spectacular sunset over the lake is worthy of a postcard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link no-border-radius\" href=\"https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/los-pueblos-magicos-de-jalisco\/#Ajijic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read More<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:75%\">\n<p><strong><b>L<\/b>earn more about Ajijic: Actiities, where to eat, where to sleep and more<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-black-background-color has-text-color has-background\">Planning on visiting Chapala or Jalisco&#8217;s Pueblos Magicos? <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/renting-a-car-in-mexico-avoid-scams-get-the-best-deals\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"white-link\">Renting a Car in Mexico<\/a><\/strong> can be the easiest and cheaper way to get there.<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/renting-a-car-in-mexico-avoid-scams-get-the-best-deals\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"white-link\">Discover how to Rent a Car in Mexico at the best rate and free of scams.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"gastronomy\">Enjoy Jalisco Gastronomy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Visiting Guadalajara and its surroundings, just to enjoy its rich and varied typical cuisine, is a trip that is worth it.

It&#8217;s very simple to prepare by mixing small steaks with bacon, tomatoes, green tomatoes, and chili peppers. Everything is cooked in the juices released by the same ingredients, resulting in a delicious dish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The place par excellence to eat meat in its juices is Karnes Garibaldi, which has several branches in the city. If you visit them, do not forget to accompany your &#8220;Carne en su Jugo&#8221;, with some delicious refried beans with corn. Another thing that makes this restaurant famous is the speed of its service, on average, it takes 13 seconds to have your order ready. This fact has earned them recognition in the Guinness Book of Records as the fastest-serving restaurant in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link no-border-radius\" href=\"https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/the-best-restaurants-in-guadalajara\/\">Read More<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:75%\">\n<p id=\"tw-target-text\">Looking for the perfect place to dine? <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/the-best-restaurants-in-guadalajara\/\">Discover The Best 10 Restaurants in Guadalajara. <\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-5834876758300015\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-5834876758300015\" data-ad-slot=\"3818983367\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"tortas-ahogadas\">Tortas Ahogada<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"680\" src=\"https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Tortas-Ahogadas-1024x680.jpg\" alt=\"Torta Ahogada\" class=\"wp-image-730\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Tortas-Ahogadas-1024x680.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Tortas-Ahogadas-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Tortas-Ahogadas-768x510.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Tortas-Ahogadas.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Tortas Ahogadas<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This is perhaps the most iconic dish of Guadalajara, which in recent years has become popular in the rest of the country. It is a sandwich made with &#8220;birote&#8221; (a savory bread which is a variation of the baguette) stuffed with &#8220;carnitas&#8221; (fried pork meat), bathed in a tomato sauce, and topped with deflated onion and hot sauce. In Guadalajara, it is considered the quintessential food to cure a hangover after a night out. You can find it in restaurants, especially those frequented by tourists, as well as in breakfast buffet bars. However, a self-respecting person from Guadalajara only consumes &#8220;tortas ahogadas&#8221; in establishments specializing in this dish, which luckily are many throughout the city. Amongst the best known are &#8220;Las Famosas,&#8221; &#8220;Tortas To\u00f1o&#8221;, &#8220;Jos\u00e9 El de la Bicicleta Drowned Cakes&#8221;, &#8220;Tortas Ahogadas el T\u00edo Juan&#8221;, and of course &#8220;El Principe Heredero&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link no-border-radius\">Read More<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:75%\">\n<p id=\"tw-target-text\"><strong>Read our complete guide to The best &#8220;Tortas Ahogadas&#8221; as well as other regional cuisine options that you should try<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Birria<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"688\" height=\"458\" src=\"https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Birria.jpg\" alt=\"Birria jalisco style\n\" class=\"wp-image-727\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Birria.jpg 688w, https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Birria-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 688px) 100vw, 688px\" \/><figcaption>Birria<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Birria&#8221; is another of the classics from Guadalajara, a preparation of lamb, goat, or beef meat, marinated with a mixture of chilies and cooked underground for 5 hours.

If you have enough time, they are all worth visiting. However, if you don&#8217;t have time to tour the state, there are two magical towns within a relatively short distance. We refer to Tapalpa and Mazamitla, which can be visited in a one-day excursion each. Visiting these towns is one of the things you should not miss on your visit to Guadalajara.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mazamitla<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Mazamitla-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Mazamitla, Jalisco Pueblo M\u00e1gico.\" class=\"wp-image-736\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Mazamitla-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Mazamitla-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Mazamitla-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Mazamitla-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Mazamitla.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Mazamitla Down Town<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Mazamitla, the preferred Magical Town of the people of Guadalajara, is an old and beautiful mountain town, nestled in the mountains just 120 kilometers from Guadalajara. Upon arrival, you will notice the homogeneity of its constructions, white and red facades, and clay roofs, typical elements of rustic Mexican mountain architecture. Visit the main square, where the parish of San Cristobal stands out. This is a very particular construction since it mixes several architectural styles, one of them quite unexpected. If you look at the temple in question, you will notice certain elements that resemble a Chinese temple. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Continue touring the main square of Mazamitla, here you can enjoy an ice cream or some tasty esquites (boiled corn) with cream and cheese while resting on a bench. In the surrounding portals, you will find numerous shops that offer crafts, souvenirs, delicious typical sweets, as well as typical dairy products of the region, all good options to take as a gift.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Adding to the charm of the town, in Mazamitla, you can do a large number of ecotourism activities. Amongst the main activities are hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding. Amongst the most popular walks, you can do in the forest is the visit to the &#8220;El Salto&#8221; waterfall and the &#8220;Mirador de la Sierra del Tigre.&#8221; For those who simply want to kick back and relax, just being in the woods admiring the scenery and breathing in the pine-scented fresh, air is both energizing and relaxing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have the opportunity to visit this site for more than one day, we recommend staying in a cabin. Which you can find with capacity for a couple, even for a whole family, and at quite affordable prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-11 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link no-border-radius\" href=\"https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/los-pueblos-magicos-de-jalisco\/#Mazamitla\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read More<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:75%\">\n<p><strong><a aria-label=\"undefined (abre en una nueva pesta\u00f1a)\" href=\"https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/los-pueblos-magicos-de-jalisco\/#Mazamitla\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Learn more about the activities, where to eat and where to sleep in Mazamitla<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tapalpa<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"685\" src=\"https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Tapalpa-Centro.jpg\" alt=\"Tapalpa Pueblo Magico\" class=\"wp-image-734\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Tapalpa-Centro.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Tapalpa-Centro-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Tapalpa-Centro-768x514.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Tapalpa Down Town<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Another option for those who want to visit a picturesque magical mountain town is Tapalpa, one of the 9 Magical Towns of Jalisco. It is located 140 km away from Guadalajara at 2000 meters high. Given its proximity, it is ideal to visit for a weekend or even on a day trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It shares the rustic mountain architecture of other mountain towns, although with a unique charm. The beauty of Tapalpa is evident wherever you walk, its peaceful and narrow cobbled streets and old houses with red roofs, transport the visitor to other times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Its central square with its kiosk in the center has the particularity of having two temples. The old temple, more than 350 years old, which today functions as a museum of sacred art and the temple currently in operation, consecrated to Santa Maria de Guadalupe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Around the square, there are dozens of restaurants, craft shops, and some hotels. It is worth walking through its streets and walkways calmly without fear of getting lost in them. In this way, it is very likely that you will end up finding a perfect picturesque corner for a photo. If you walk down Luis Enrique Bracamontes street, you can visit the Casa de la Cultura, with a beautiful garden in the center and spaces that represent a home of yesteryear, in a mountain town. If you prefer not to walk, you can take a city tour on a bus, ATV, or on the back of a horse. In this way, you can also make better use of your time if you only visit Tapalpa for a few hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Las &#8220;piedrotas&#8221;, ball stones or also known as the valley of enigmas, is another of the great attractions of Tapalpa. These are monumental rock formations, of which their origin we do not know. Some say that they were placed there by extraterrestrial beings, the truth is that in some of them, you can see inscriptions made by pre-Hispanic civilizations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If what you are looking for is more action, you can also find it in Tapalpa. Here, you can do zip-lining, rent ATVs, go hiking, mountain biking, and even take a tandem paragliding flight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-12 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link no-border-radius\" href=\"https:\/\/gdlgo.com\/en\/tapalpa-pueblo-magico\/\" title=\"Tapalpa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read More<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:75%\">\n<p><strong>Get to know other attractions of Tapalpa, as well as our recommendations of what to do, what to eat and where to sleep.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-5834876758300015\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-5834876758300015\" data-ad-slot=\"3818983367\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-very-light-gray-color has-text-color\"><p style=\"background-color:#000000\" class=\"white-link\">\u00bfViajas con Ni\u00f1os?

This distillate has its origin in the area surrounding Tequila, the picturesque magical town from which the drink takes its name. Visiting Tequila and the tequila zone is a treat for the senses. Walking through the agave plantations, you can enjoy the agave landscape, which along with the old Tequila industrial facilities, were declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Take a tour of a tequila hacienda to learn about the process of distillation and preparation of the drink. The best way to end the tour is with a tequila tasting. In addition to savoring the different varieties of this drink, you can pack your own bottle, mixing the varieties that you liked the most. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To continue pleasing senses, you can enjoy a good birria or other regional dishes in one of the many restaurants in the center of town. Continue your tour of the center, visiting a couple of beautiful old churches &#8220;El Templo de la Pur\u00edsima&#8221;, and &#8220;La Capilla del Calvario&#8221;, the City Hall, and the Tequila Museum. End your afternoon in the Main Square, where you can buy one of the famous, refreshing, and delicious jarritos, made with a mixture of citrus fruits and of course, Tequila. This drink is served on a small clay jug called &#8220;jarritos&#8221; in Spanish, from whet it takes its name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are a tequila lover, the tequila trail should be a priority on your list of things to do and see in Guadalajara.
