Wall Street Journal features Mexican Destinations >>

The charming town of San Miguel de Allende is known for its fabulous weather and rich culture and arts. Located a few hours north of Mexico City in the Sierra Madres, it was founded in 1542 by Fray Juan de San Miguel, a Franciscan monk. San Miguel de Allende retains a rich colonial charm with its cobblestone streets and beautiful Spanish colonial mansions.

San Miguel de Allende is one of only two cities in Mexico on the United Nations list of historical monuments. It was voted by the readers of Conde Nast Traveler as one of the top ten travel destinations in the world. With an average annual temperature of 71 degrees, the area enjoys a perpetual spring-like climate.
