[2025 Guanajuato Attraction] Travel Guide for Basilica of Our Lady of Guanajuato (Updated Apr)

🇲🇽Two-day guide to Guanajuato|||It was my first time to Mexico, so I arranged a 6-day tour of Mexico City + Guanajuato. The experience was unexpectedly good. Guanajuato in particular is built like a utopia during Christmas, with performances everywhere on the streets, making it very lively and suitable for all ages. 🌟How to get to Guanajuato from Mexico City Airplane ✈️! Fly from NLU (New Airport) to BJX. The hotel door to door only takes 4 hours, which saves a lot of time. We saw many guides that recommended taking the bus, but we felt that the bus was more difficult to control. First, it was slow. Plus, it normally took almost 7 hours to get to the bus station at both ends. In addition, the journey was long and we were afraid of accidents. 🌟Must-visit places (walking the whole way) - 📍Pipila Mountain Viewing Platform. Overlooking the whole city. Buy your ticket to go up the mountain at the place marked with the cable car in Figure 2. It is recommended to queue up early. It takes almost an hour to queue before sunset. It was dark when I went up for the first time. You can also walk up, but it's quite tiring. - 📍Teatro Juárez. Unfortunately I didn’t watch the show inside this time. I only looked at the outside. It was very grand and beautiful to take pictures. The entrance is very lively, with many performances while eating. - 📍The main square church is called Basílica Colegiata de Nuestra Señora. The square is the center of Guanajuato. It is very pleasant to sit, drink some water and watch people coming and going. - 📍Comprehensive market Mercado Hidalgo. Highly recommended, suitable for eating. The local snacks are cheap and large, and you can also buy a lot of handicraft souvenirs. I bought a lot of them as gifts for my friends and colleagues. Some of the souvenirs in Figure 8 were bought in Mexico City. - 📍There is a roast chicken restaurant Restaurant la Carreta on the way to the general market. The freshly baked roast chicken with pickled jalapenos is really amazing. It is recommended to pack half a chicken and take it back to the hotel as a snack. - 📍University of Guanajuato. Just walk through the alley behind the main square. You can't take photos on the stairs now because there are boards blocking them. But the whole building is still very grand and majestic. - 📍Mummy Museum. It seems to be quite popular, but the queue is very long. We didn’t have enough time when we arrived at the door and couldn’t go in. It is not recommended to take a taxi as it is too congested. The museum is on a mountain, and the last 1000 meters is a one-way street. It is very congested and you can only walk up, and walk down the mountain when you come back. It is a 30-minute walk from the city center one way. 🌟 Where to stay If you have a short time, it is best to stay in the center so that it is convenient to go everywhere. But during holidays, living near the square is noisy as there are many activities. This is the hotel I booked. It's one street away from the square and is much better! All the decorations and facilities are new, and a large room with a terrace costs just over two hundred on Christmas Day. The avocado toast for breakfast was delicious.

| I actually went to Guanajuato, and it was worth the two days and one night. Because of a song, I came to a city. When the melody of "Remember Me" sounded, my heart was fascinated by the warm and magical world in "Play Paradise", and Guanajuato became a must-visit place on my travel list💓. I longed to stand in the sunny town to feel the excitement and mystery of the Day of the Dead, to find the shadows of Miguel and his family, and let this passionate emotion awakened by music, and those remembered loves, leave a deep mark in life❗️ 👣My itinerary: Day1️⃣: Encounter romance and art Kissing Alley--Guanajuato University--Peace Square--Basilica of Our Lady--Juarez Theater--Pipila Mountain Day2️⃣: Explore history and culture Underground Street--Diego Rivera House Museum--Local Market--Street Stroll 🌟Must-visit recommendation: ■Kissing Alley: This narrow alley is flanked by colorful buildings. Legend has it that couples can love each other for life if they kiss here. ■ Monte Pipila: The top of the mountain is a good place to watch the night view. You can have a panoramic view of the whole Guanajuato. The colorful houses are scattered around like a huge oil painting. ■Basilica of Our Lady of Guanajuato: This exquisite Baroque building is the town’s landmark. ■ Juárez Theater: The building has a neoclassical exterior and the surrounding square is also very lively. ■University of Guanajuato: It has ancient and beautiful buildings. It is located in the center of the ancient city and has a strong historical and cultural atmosphere. ■Street walking: Every house in Guanajuato looks like a carefully crafted work by an artist. Wandering in the streets and alleys, any photo you take will be a blockbuster. 🎈Practical tips: 1. You can walk to Mt. Pipila or take a cable car to the top of the mountain. 2. Juárez Theater is open at irregular times. If you want to enter, it is recommended to check the ticket center on the right side of the theater in advance. 3. The road from the Basilica of Our Lady to the theater is particularly lively at night, with musical instruments, singing and dancing, creating a great atmosphere.

From Mexico City, you can take the bus for 5 hours to get to the Guanajuato Central Station. The Mexican bus is not too luxurious. It is simply the treatment of the business class of the aircraft. Now think about the domestic car, it is really different. On the train, you will get a bottle of drinks, sandwiches or snacks. The seats are basically flat and there is a flat-screen TV. lay down from Mexico City for five hours, sleep to Guanajuato, and the original price of 665 pesos for five hours, and we bargained to 600 pesos, the HKD is almost 200 points, really Too conscience, what else to do with the plane wow. After getting off the bus, you can play uber or taxi to Guanajuato town, about 50-70 pesos. The town was born out of the mine and is now rated as a World Heritage Site. The town was founded in 1554. It was one of the largest silver mine centers in the world in the 16th century. It was destroyed by the floods in the 17th century and gradually recovered after the 1930s. At the beginning of the sixteenth century, the Spaniards came to mine silver mines, which brought prosperity to the city. The entire town was built on the hills, and today the city's architectural style and urban layout are all traces of the mining industry of the year. There was also a tunnel built by the Spaniards for mining in the past. It is still the traffic artery of the city, witnessing the glory of this ancient mountain city. The constant wealth has also led to the prosperity of Guanajuato culture. The theaters, squares and sculptures everywhere make the ancient city full of rich cultural atmosphere. When the weather is fine, it is very far-sighted, and the colorful buildings are scattered among the mountains, making you feel refreshed.
