Overview
We leave for the Magic Town Tlalpujahua located in the State of Michoacán, where we will enter the Dos Estrellas mine and discover the greatness of the mine.
Leaving the mine we went to the main church of Tlalpujahua, built in 1770, Nuestra Señora del Carmen, a name given to it after the tragedy of the lamas, in 1937, when the image of this Virgin remained intact, being Devastated part of the town by the toxic mud from the mines.
Later we will visit a workshop of Christmas ornamental spheres, very typical of the region and which are all hand-painted, exported to the world. During the visit to the Workshop you will learn about the process of making the spheres.
We continue to another of the Pueblos Mágicos el Oro located in the State of Mexico, its buildings reflect all the European styles of the time such as the Juárez Theater and the Neoclassical Municipal Palace.
