When you enter Taxco, you are greeted with a view of cobblestone streets and white houses with red tiles. But what is really amazing is the 200-year-old Cathedral of Santa Prisca, which is designed in true Mexican-Baroque style and has a remarkable façade and interior design.

Of course, the city’s fondness for all things silver can be found in the nearly 1,000 silver stores spread across the city. Taxco silver jewellery makes for a perfect souvenir, and the prices are quite moderate too. The Silver Fair is a month-long event that usually starts in November every year and features local silver artists displaying their work.

Also visit the Humbolt House, which has the Museum of Viceregal Art and is also called House of Mirrors. The quaint sixteenth-century San Bernadino Convent and the De la Borda mansion (which is now called the House of Culture) are also worth a visit, alongside the magnificent Cacalote Falls located just outside of Taxco.
