Morelia, Mexico

Why Walk Morelia

Morelia's UNESCO-listed historic center is built almost entirely from pink cantera stone, giving the city a warm, unified elegance rare even among Mexico's colonial cities. The twin-towered cathedral is one of the finest in the country, and its evening illumination is spectacular. The 17th-century aqueduct stretches for nearly two kilometers along the city's eastern edge, with 253 arches creating a dramatic walking corridor. The Palacio de Gobierno features vivid murals by local artist Alfredo Zalce depicting Mexican history. The Calzada Fray Antonio de San Miguel, a tree-lined promenade, connects the aqueduct to the city center and is popular for evening strolls. Morelia is also the capital of Michoacan, known for its rich culinary tradition — try the corundas, carnitas, and uchepos at the central market.
