Guanajauto Mexico is a wonderful and truly amazing old Spanish colonial city in central Mexico with twisty alley ways, old missions and churches, and street vendors. For a photographer, its a treasure trove of color, light, and design at every turn of the narrow streets. Forget San Miguel de Allende with the high end tourist attitude. If you want authentic colonial Mexico, with almost no American tourists or rich ex pats sipping coffee at the new Starbucks (yikes!) as in San Miguel, go to Guanajuato. Its slightly hard to get to being just about two hours north of Mexico in the sierra nevada mountains. Bus or taxi from Leon is the best way to travel there and once you there, all you have to do is just wander in any direction for a sensory treat. The trip was fantastic in every way. I've included some new photos.
