GuadaIajara & Puerto Vallarta: GuadaIajara is alive with the music of mariachis, flowers, coIoniaI architecture, and passionate artists. Rudy explores the rich history and culture of "The Most Mexican of Cities." Art and artists are an important part of Guadalajara and Rudy takes it aIl in from the papier-mâché piñatas to the dramatic muraIs of Orozco. Rudy tours a tequila factory, learns about margaritas and sampIes the best of traditional Mexican cooking. Then it's an easy hop to the coast where Puerto Vallarta's traditionaI charm still survives next to its new resorts. Mexico City and Ixtapa: Mexico City, the worId's largest metropoIis, is modern, crowded, cosmopolitan, and steeped in tradition. Rudy begins with Mexico's ancient roots just outside the city at pre-Aztec Teotihuacán. The superb NationaI Museum of AnthropoIogy provides more insights into ancient Mexico. For modern day excitement, we hang out at the ZocoIo, the world's second largest square and the center of nationaI life since the Aztec era. Finally we head beach-ward to the resorts of lxtapa-Zihuatanejo on the Mexican Riviera. Tips on getting around and water sports. |
