On this private tour of the Mineral de Pozos, we'll learn about the history of the gold and silver farms that made this Magic Town famous. We'll see the ruins of colonial estates and old smelting ovens.
Description
At the scheduled time, we'll collect you from your hotel in Guanajuato and travel by minibus to Mineral de Pozos. After 2 hours, we'll arrive at our destination. We will visit the Santa Brígida mine, where 18th-century silver-smelting ovens built by the Jesuit order are located.
Next, we will explore the Cinco Señores mines, observing old tunnels and ruins of a colonial estate near the gold and silver farms. Many structures of this type are present in the town.
We'll also visit the former El Triángulo estate, known for being owned by Mexican president Porfirio Díaz, and having a cactus garden.
Nearing the historical center, we'll find the old school of Mineral de Pozo, once one of the best schools in the state, which now features an exhibition on the town's history and a collection of contemporary Mexican art.
Free time will be provided for meals, and after 9 hours, the tour will conclude back at the hotels in Guanajuato.
