This place has it all. Fantastic angels, pyramids, local legends abound, even a vampires grave. If you want to spend hours and hours walking through a graveyard full of fantastic statues, beautiful rolling hills located right next to a river then THIS is it. Prime picnic area. Spend the day there and TAKE YOUR CAMERA!

Quaint and full of tourist shops which are full of souvenirs to buy. Somewhat overpriced but overall neat.

Only Problems: Cell phone service is questionable and its cold even in summer.

LOVE this place. There is SO MUCH to do for it being such a small town. It rained the whole time I was there and I still had a blast. Camping, Horseback Riding, The Stanley Hotel. This is probably the best vacation I’ve ever had despite the rain.

The foreign language club from my school (Meadowbrook High) went here in the summer of 2000. Luckily my boyfriend at the time was fluent in Spanish and we were both 18 so we were allowed more freedom then the rest of the group.

While there I almost fell into the massive numerous unmarked holes all over the sidewalks (frightening), I saw that every single person there drove a VW (cabs and busses too!) and we were offered pot at every corner. There were also armed gaurds outside every bank. That was a bit disconcerting, because I’m talking semi-automatic rifles – not handguns. Also, the best art was after seeing a midnight showing of Mission Impossible 2, on our way back from the hotel my then boyfriend was hit with the best like ever:

“Ey man… Joo want to buy my seester?” It was fantastic!

I would definatly reccomend this to anyone. And try the little hot dogs wrapped in bacon! They wont make you sick. I promise.

(No, we did not do any drugs… ew.)
