This is a beautiful traditional pueblo with colorful balconies and funky wooden doors facing the narrow streets. This town is located in an area of great hydroelectric power production, therefore the number and size of bodies of water is considerable.  Along with the Guadalupe waterfalls, many natural pools are very popular for a sunny day out.
