Guadalajara
About 1.5 million people.
Guadalajara is the second biggest city in Mexico and is often called the home of mariachi music and Mexican cowboys. It is full of tradition and warm energy.
You can listen to lively mariachi bands, watch charro riders show off on horses, and visit the twin-towered cathedral in the center of town.
