I've had a fantastic few days in Guanajuato. It's been a wonderful experience, and I wish I could extend my stay. This city has left a lasting impression on me, and I'm already looking forward to coming back. There's so much to discover and enjoy here - it's truly a unique and captivating place.
Guanajuato is nestled in a valley surrounded by mountains, its hills covered with closely packed houses. Most streets are so narrow that cars have to navigate through the city in underground tunnels. Walking through these tunnels felt like being in caves, with people waiting for buses amidst exhaust-filled, dimly lit spaces. It's a remarkably unique city.
If you're in the area, I highly recommend visiting Guanajuato and joining a walking musical tour with the 'Callejoneadas'. I captured a video of one of their lively walks, and I absolutely loved it. Eduardo, the handsome and charismatic group leader, can serenade me anytime!
If you're in Guanojato and you'd really like to see something unique (and morbid) visit the mummy museum. But keep in mind it's not for the faint of heart. The mummies freaked me out because most of them looked like they died while being tortured. They actually died in the 1800's of Cholera, but there are stories that some of them were buried alive. The thought of that and visions of them screaming kept me up all night. As someone who can't handle watching horror movies I should of known better than to go there. Remind me not to do that again and remind me to tell my kids I'd like to be cremated! Eeek
