Cerro del Cubilete & Cristo Rey Monument Tour
After hotel pickup in Guanajuato at the scheduled time, we will drive to Cerro del Cubilete, a notable viewpoint in the heart of Mexico. Here, we will visit the sanctuary located at the base of the Cristo Rey statue, a key pilgrimage site.
Inside the sanctuary, we will view several artworks before observing the iconic Cristo Rey monument, a large sculpture of Jesus Christ on a sphere representing the universe. The tour will reveal the meanings behind the angels’ offerings at the statue's feet and highlight the monument's history, including its damage during the Mexican Revolution. Visitors can also enjoy panoramic views of El Bajio de Guanajuato from 2,600 meters above sea level.
The tour will conclude with a visit to the surrounding natural area to explore handicraft stalls and sample local snacks if desired. The sightseeing will last approximately 3 hours, after which you will be dropped off in Guanajuato.
