rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mrkstvns - People seem to like moaning about how all the resort areas of Mexico "aren't the real Mexico". I don't get it though. If they don't like those resorts, why do they go there? Seems to me that more folks should be going straight to Guanajuato and...

Tue, 1 Aug 2000 10:17:35 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author memomx - No doubt that Guanajuato is unique - with its narrow callejones (alleyways) traversing the steep hillsides of the city, it conjures up the image of a city in Spain. Basically, there are only two streets in downtown Guanajuato - the subterraneo leading...
