AGUASCALIENTES - Aguascalientes

Downtown Aguascalientes, a great and modern city. This is the old part of the town. Cathedral built in 1738.

Every April since 1828 Aguascalientes has the biggest and most famous fair in Mexico, the Feria Nacional de San Marcos. Big crowds gather then, about 1 million visitors in 3 weeks. Bullfights, cockfights, concerts and about 2000 stands and exhibitions. Plus the only legal casino (during the fair) in the country.
