Guanajuato
Leon MMLO: 5,956 MSL
rwy 11,483 2 148, paved
This hilly silver-mining town is
one of several world heritage cities
near Leon in central Mexico, about
245 miles northwest of Mexico City.
It sits in the bowl of a mountain with
colorful buildings rising up all hillsides.
(Expect to walk up and down hills a
lot, or hire a guide for the day!)
Guanajuato has everything you’d
expect to find in an energetic university
town: abundant cafes in lovely
courtyards, shops, museums, a theater,
and Mexican-European flair. What
makes Guanajuato unique is how the
old mining tunnels have been turned
into streets underneath the city. It’s easy
to get lost, but it’s fun driving around
down there! Find out more information:
