Chihuahua,
capital of Mexico’s biggest state, is a quirky but pleasant combination
of norteño character, revolutionary history and bohemian studenty
hangouts. Many travelers use it only as an overnight stop before or
after riding the Ferrocarril Chihuahua Pacífico, but Chihuahua is worth
more of your time. The city center combines grand colonial buildings,
several beautiful plazas, pedestrianized lanes and a healthy crop of
restaurants, cafes and bars. Its museums bear witness to the key
episodes of Mexican history that unfolded here. In short, you'll find it
an intriguing city with a strong sense of identity. Peaceful Chihuahua
remains unfettered by the trappings of
tourism. It has some beautiful parks and plazas, excellent restaurants,
and a fine collection of cultural offerings.This capital city of Mexico’s largest state has long been a prosperous city, as evidenced by the restored colonial buildings dotting downtown and the remains of the 5.5km-long early-18th-century aqueduct to the southwest. Its modern economic success is best demonstrated by the flash shopping malls on its outskirts and the proliferation of public art.
The bulk of foreigners use the metropolis only as an overnight stop en route to the Barranca del Cobre
railway, so most of the folks you’ll encounter will be locals; a
pleasing mix of professionals, working-class, students and dapper
rancheros decked out in brightly colored cowboy boots. Many Mennonites
and colorfully attired Rarámuri come to town too.
