San Miguel de Allende may just be the most charming small town in Mexico. It's no pueblito, though, but a colorful, colonial-style city with a vibrant wine scene, markets and artisans galore, and one of the most impressive gastronomic scenes in Mexico.
From the second you drop into downtown, you'll see the iconic, pink Parroquia de San Miguel Arcángel towering above the lower, Spanish-style buildings sprawled out around the square. Walk around the square, people watch, or duck into the nearby artisan market to pick up handmade goodies.
Despite being a small town, San Miguel de Allende is filled with things to do, whether you're in town for a day or a week. It's a cultural hub, with plenty of art exhibition spaces and live music performances around town in the evenings. And if you can't fit everything into one trip, you'll just have to come back; you wouldn't be the first foreigner to land in San Miguel permanently.

Looks great, but how do you get there? Depending on where you're coming from, you can fly into Dallas or Houston and take the short plane ride to Guanajuato (BJX) or Queretaro's (QRO) lovely, modern airports. From there, I'll have a van pick you up and take you to the Casa de la Noche. You can also fly into Mexico City and take a plane either to Queretaro or Guanajuato or take the long van ride to San Miguel from the Mexico City airport (MEX).
