A colonial-era city in Mexico's central highlands, San Miguel de Allende is known for its Spanish Baroque architecture, thriving art scene and cultural festivals. The cobbled historic center of the city is home to the neo-Gothic San Miguel Arcángel parish church, whose tall pink towers rise above El Jardín (main plaza). The nearby San Francisco temple has an 18th-century Churrigueresque façade. San Miguel de Allende is famous for its history, charm, mild climate, color, location and, above all, because it has become a highly interesting destination for visitors, not only for its architecture and uniqueness, but also for its cultural offerings. Its historic center is filled with well-preserved buildings dating back to the 17th and 18th centuries. With its narrow cobblestone streets, tree-lined courtyards, fine architectural details and sumptuous interiors, it is without a doubt the most beautiful city in Mexico.
