Originally
called Taxco de Alarcon, the
silver capital of Mexico is
located in Mexico’s southern
region, 138 km (85 mi) north of
Chilpancingo, the state capital
of Guerrero, and 151 km (93 mi)
south of Mexico City, off
Highway 95. The climate is warm
and humid, with an average
year-round temperature of 19º C
(66º F).
Considered one of Mexico’s
most picturesque towns, this
charming destination offers
cobblestone streets, colonial
buildings and white houses with
red tile roofs. Another notable
attraction of unparalleled
beauty is the Catedral de Santa
Prisca (Santa Prisca Cathedral),
one of the most representative
examples of baroque architecture
in Mexico. During your stay, you
also can visit the Humboldt and
Borda houses, which have great
historical and cultural value,
or you can check out the
Viceregal Art Museum and the
Silver Museum; in the latter
you’ll see incredible silver
objects, such as earrings,
necklaces bracelets and other
items. Silverwork has long been
a vital part of Taxco’s economy,
thanks largely to American
silversmith William Spratling,
who had a strong influence on
Mexican silver design.
In
the surrounding areas you can
visit wonderful natural settings
like the Grutas de Cacahuamilpa
(Cacahuamilpa Caverns), which
are ideal for cave diving.
Another interesting natural
attraction is the Alejandro
Humboldt National Park, where
you’ll find abundant pine and
oak forests offering gorgeous
landscapes for hiking. When you
return to the city, head to one
of Taxco’s traditional
restaurants, where you can order
Guerrero-style pozole (hominy
soup). After the meal, you can
take a stroll along the
beautifully illuminated streets,
and if you like, you can duck
into one of the bars, coffee
shops, or nightclubs, most of
which you’ll find on the city’s
southern end. At some of these
places you can enjoy the party
until the break of dawn.
