A Day in Los Altos de Jalisco
If you're thinking about a weekend getaway with your grandparents —or with those family members who love trips full of tradition— set out to explore the charming towns of Los Altos de Jalisco.
On this journey, in addition to religious destinations, you’ll discover rich gastronomy, architecture, history, culture, and all the charm of Los Altos de Jalisco, in the most Mexican way: puebleando (village hopping).
09:00 AM
The perfect first stop is Tepatitlán, a land of alteño pride. Stroll through its Plaza de Armas, step into the Municipal Museum, and let yourself be surprised by the local history. For breakfast, Mercado Centenario holds a true treasure: Meregildo tortas and bagged chocomiles that taste like childhood and tradition.
12:00 PM
Continue the route to Jalostotitlán. The Parroquia de Nuestra Señora de la Asunción, carved in pink quarry stone, stands majestically in the heart of town. To refresh your soul (and your palate), take a break at Casa Verde, a cantina that preserves the spirit of old-time gatherings. Then head to Mi Pueblo, a restaurant that lives up to its name—flavorful, generous, and filled with that warm, welcoming feeling only small towns can give.
2:00 PM
Upon arriving in San Juan de los Lagos, the experience becomes more intimate and profound. The Cathedral Basilica of Our Lady of San Juan is an icon of faith and architecture. And if you want to better understand the story of the Virgin and the reason behind so many pilgrimages, visit the Cihuapilli Museum: a gem for reconnecting with your roots and your family.
A getaway where every town has a story to tell, something to offer… and countless memories to share.
