Things To Do
Museum of the Mummies of Guanajuato
One of Guanajuato’s most unique and well-known attractions. This museum showcases naturally mummified remains discovered in the local cemetery, offering a fascinating (and slightly eerie) look into the city’s history, traditions, and past beliefs around life and death.
Mercado Hidalgo
A lively local market where you’ll find street food, sweets, fresh juices, and small vendors. A great stop to taste everyday Guanajuato and soak up the local atmosphere.
Alhóndiga de Granaditas Regional Museum
A historic landmark and museum that played a key role in Mexico’s War of Independence, offering insight into Guanajuato’s past and national history.
Monumento Al Pipila
A hilltop monument honoring a hero of Mexico’s independence, with some of the best panoramic views over the city. You can reach it by funicular or on foot, and it’s especially great for photos near sunset.
Callejón del Beso
One of Guanajuato’s most famous alleyways. Narrow, charming, and full of local legend, it’s a quick stop and easy to stumble upon while wandering the city.
Teatro Juárez
An iconic theater known for its grand architecture and cultural significance. Even if you don’t catch a performance, it’s worth stopping by to admire the exterior and surrounding plaza.
