Exploring Guanajuato, Mexico — JustinRoG (2015)

Source: Original · Readwise highlight

As week two of our seven week adventure in Mexico came to an end, we took a day trip to Guanajuato, Mexico.

  • Role: subject
  • In the article: Two weeks into a seven-week stay in Mexico, the family takes a first-class bus from San Miguel de Allende, an hour and a half away, and explores the city on foot and by taxi: funicular, museum, alleys, tunnels under the city, the market and the mines to the north. The post lists what everything cost.
  • Why it matters: The whole post is about the city, its steep hillsides and the silver wealth that built it.
