Zacatecas was the last city we stopped in on our trip over independence holiday. It is another beautiful colonial city. Incredible architecture, beautiful cathedrals, great restaurants and authentic Spanish food (quite different than Mexican actually), and we had amazing accomodations. Our hostel was very cool, it was probably seven floors tall and we had a view of the city center from the terrace in our room. (I took the pic of the cathedral from our hostel terrace). It was right downtown so we walked everywhere and enjoyed all the lights and decorations for independence day. Lots of beautiful shops and handmade things. The city is situated between two mountains and was stunning. We got up early our last morning and hiked up the mountain and encountered an incredible view of the city. There is a gondola that runs from peak to peak and gives you a view of the city from 150 meters above and we were one of the first in line. It was such a cool experience. Zacatecas is a very friendly city and there was never a dull moment here, it was a highlight of our trip.
