Guadalajara Trip Overview
A Magical Town is a reflection of our Mexico, a place that over the time has been able to preserve, value and defend their historical and cultural heritage. Tapalpa proudly owns this title. This alpine town is south of Guadalajara, with pine clad hills, creeks, small lakes that surround the small colonial town with a name that speaks for itself, as it comes from the ancient nahuatl language and means “Land of Colors”.
In the village, sturdy wooden columns support whitewashed houses with red tile roofs, neat cobblestone streets weave around restored churches, making it one of the most attractive towns in the state of Jalisco with a gorgeous landscape.
