In the heart of Villa de Álvarez, the main garden pulses as the living soul of a town that honors its traditions. Under the shade of century-old trees and the whisper of fountains, life unfolds leisurely, amid laughter, encounters, and the echo of ancient horseback rides.
The Parish of Saint Francis of Assisi stands majestically, serenely overseeing the square. At its base, the impressive sculpture La Cabalgata, crafted by sculptor Octavio González, depicts six life-sized bronze riders, symbolizing the traditional Charro-Taurine Festivals that every February fill the city with life and color.
In this garden, every corner tells a story: wrought-iron benches, arcades with traditional sweets, and the traditional Villa\'s popsicles, flavors that have endured for generations, refreshing Colima\'s afternoons with authenticity.
Villa de Álvarez doesn\'t rush; it invites you to walk slowly, to savor the moment, and to listen to the stories its streets and people have to share.
