Discover Guadalajara's vibrant soul as Mexico's cultural capital with your self-guided tour, allowing you to explore the birthplace of mariachi and tequila at your own pace. Begin at the Cruz de Plazas surrounding the Cathedral whose yellow-and-blue tiled neo-Gothic spires have defined the skyline since their reconstruction after the 1818 earthquake. Step inside the UNESCO World Heritage Hospicio Cabañas to stand beneath José Clemente Orozco's colossal Man of Fire mural engulfing the chapel dome in painted flames - widely considered Mexico's greatest work of public art. Wander through Mercado Libertad, Latin America's largest indoor market spanning 40,000 square metres across 3 floors. Watch master glassblowers transform molten glass into cobalt-blue tumblers in Tlaquepaque's colonial workshops, hear live mariachi in full charro regalia in the legendary Plaza de los Mariachis, and venture beyond the city through the UNESCO-listed town of Tequila.
