Guadalajara, the second largest city in Mexico, has retained much of its European influence after the French and Spanish occupancies of centuries gone by. Amidst the sparkling skyscrapers and dramatic modern architecture, Guadalajara's historic center (Centro Historico) is full of character and elegant old structures. In this part of Guadalajara you will find a series of plazas, horse-drawn carriages, pedestrianised streets and pleasant green areas, complete with flowers and benches. A day strolling through the historical buildings and streets, government centers and open-air market, is a European vacation in itself. The pueblos surrounding Guadalajara are responsible for the creation of tequila, traditional mariachi music, and even the country's iconic sombrero hat. World class shopping at Andares Mall includes Cartier, Coach, and dozens of brands you would find on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills. From small boutique hotels to upscale hip properties, we provide a variety of options for the business traveler and vacationer alike to enjoy their stay in this, the heart of Mexico!
