Giant, mountainous, glorious Sonora

Giant, mountainous, glorious Sonora seems to make up the entire north of Mexico. Stretching from sea and high into the Sierra, it's a state of legend, mystery, and a history that ends up in a present that's excited to be here, even with us now. Sonora has long held space for adventure. Extreme sports were all but invented here. But today's visitors take to the Capital, Hermosillo that seems to thrive with culture - from theater and arts to major sporting events and food that's unrivaled.

Setting out for the Pueblos Magicos, Álamos and Magdalena de Kino, there's a thousand things to do along the way. Sonora is home to magnificent protected natural areas, biosphere reserves that welcome visitors from all over the world. The environment is entirely unique, and people from Sonora will tell you, so is the rest of the state.
