Zacatecas is a beautiful and historic mining community in the middle of Mexico. Originating in the 1500's, Zacatecas has provided the motherland of Spain with huge amounts of silver. If you'd like to learn more about the history of Zacatecas then click here. |
|  | Like many communities in Mexico, Zacatecas is a shopper's paradise. There are hundreds of stores to choose from as well as many streetside vendors. |
Right within the city is an old mine called "El Eden". Tours are provided daily for a cost of just 30 pesos (approx. US$3) for adults. The 30 minute tour is most interesting and informative, even for those who don't speak Spanish. See my Mina El Eden travelogue below for more photos and information. | | |

Hi Robert, Very interesting Zacatecas Page. It must be very picturesque, tucked in the hills like that. The orange salsa sounds unusual, but delicious. Thanks for sharing. | JetlagCity Sun Dec 5, 2004 05:08 UTC
An entire block of shoe shine men - not what I would've expected! Great page - I'd really like to see a lot more of Mexico. |
