Guadalajara is a hidden secret! I spent a couple days there because I love tequila lol they have a tequila express that takes you to tequila town where they produce Agave tequila but cost you $100-$170 per person with limited flexibility. I did everything that the tour offers for less than $30/usd!
Take the bus to Tequila from La Central Vieja (Guadalajara Old Central). The earlier you start your day the better flexibility you have! Also check out Mexican Wrestling (LUCHA LIBRE) a must see! Lucha libre fights are held twice weekly at the Arena Coliseo de Guadalajara. There are fights on Tuesdays at 8:45pm and Sundays at 6:00pm.
Even though this post is about History, I definitely want to d a shout out about the street tacos I had here. AMAZING!!!
So not your typical place in Mexico to go to if you’re coming from the USA but definitely worth a visit if you’re into history and culture. There are museums, upon museums, upon museums. One must visit is Instituto Cultural Cabanas, you can simply spend over an hour just staring at the murals. Another is, Palacio de Gobierno, again amazing murals throughout the space and its old architectural design lends to the historic past of the city.
