Querétaro, one of the 32 Mexican states, is characterized by its great commercial activity and by the important colonial treasures that its historic center houses. Located 200 km north of the Mexican capital, Santiago de Querétaro is located at the crossroads of two main highways, within reach of the main ports on both coasts. As a result, the region has attracted numerous international businesses and is home to Mexico's growing aerospace industry. The best hotels in Querétaro are non-smoking, and are characterized by combining modernity and traditional elements, a feature that makes them very special. Strategically located near the convention center, Querétaro hotels facilitate business trips and give access to the historic center, much appreciated by tourists due to its cozy streets and its beautiful Spanish colonial architecture. Named a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, Querétaro is known as the pearl of the heart of Mexico. It is quieter than the bustling capital of the south, and offers equally important cultural resources.

a place in history

Your journey through Querétaro's history begins by following in the footsteps of its most interesting colonial residents: the conspirators who plotted to overthrow the Spanish government in 1810. Pretending to be a social club, the revolutionaries met at the house of Josefa Ortiz de Domínguez, known as La Corregidora. Now, his imposing statue looks sternly at the street that bears his name. Although it was discovered and crushed by the Spanish rulers, the Querétaro conspiracy rallied the population for the cause of independence. Nearby, the Regional Museum of Querétaro is a former Franciscan convent. Its exhibitions show the history of the region in different rooms. The updated exhibition of pre-Columbian life is especially noteworthy. A walk up to the Templo de la Santa Cruz offers extensive views of the church towers and the surrounding area. This place allows a glimpse of the daily life of a 17th century monastery. Very close, the absolute protagonist is the tree of the cross, whose thorns grow in the shape of a cross. A little further up there is a viewpoint with views of the Querétaro aqueduct, popularly known as Los Arcos. Long ago, this very tall structure was the one that supplied water to the entire city.

charming walks

Walking through Querétaro is a delight for the senses. Vaulted cathedrals, tall church towers and gorgeous fountains welcome travelers into the city. Pedestrian streets are the backbone of the historic center, and vendors set up their colorful carts along them, selling pottery, clothing, and jewelry. One of the most important industries in Querétaro is opal mining. Visitors can still find stunning fire opals in jewelry stores or in the carts of street vendors. Outdoor cafes and restaurants abound in the many squares and gardens, attracting tourists and locals alike. The streets are kept meticulously clean and well-groomed, which is a mark of civic pride.
