Activities and AttractionsQuerétaro, (pronounced Keh-rét-ah-roh) has a central historic district designated as a United Nations World Heritage site, but is also a modern economically up-scale city. It is over 475 years old and has a rich history including important events in the War for Independence from Spain, the Revolution (1910-1920) and the Maximillian era. Our house, in the historic district, is within easy walking distance of 6 beautiful plazas (including the main Jardin Zenea), cafes, charming pedestrian walkways, restaurants, first rate museums, art galleries and the historic Theater of the Republic -- the home of the Querétaro Symphony Orchestra. There are several large typical Mexican markets, one only a block away from la casa. The city is noted for its large mansions, churches, ex-convents and monasteries built in the 17and 18th centuries. An important historic monument of the city is the early l8th century aqueduct spanning 1280 meters. There are many restaurants (traditional Mexican and international food – vegetarian available) and even the best are very reasonably priced. It is a vibrant city with a lively nightlife. It’s well known as a safe, and a clean city, very welcoming to visitors, but retaining its traditional Mexican lifestyle. The streets are swept twice a day and trash picked up every night of the year. You can stroll around the center until all hours of the night and find music, theater, street performers or just families out having fun. We will supply maps and calendars of events. Mexico is always a fiesta, and some of the best are celebrated here in Querétaro. Google Queretaro tourbymexico for photos, or de-paseo for weekly events. The climate in the central highlands of Mexico is ideal – daytime temperatures 70s-80s ALL YEAR). There is no wrong time of the year to visit Querétaro – it is cooler in the summer months than most of the US. It is in the high desert so there’s no humidity.
