Guadalajara Style

March 11th, 2008

Believe it or not, Guadalajara is exactly what a lot of people are looking for. A huge city, yes, but a city that never feels like the over-extended and polluted metropolis. It’s a real treat to be visiting and writing about it again!

Sometimes I tend to think of Guadalajara a bit like Queretaro, in terms of sleek world-class infrastructure surrounding a gem of a colonial city center.

But really Guadalajara like the capital in exhile, Mexico’s second big claim to a world class city. It has all of the advantages of a metropolis, but without the indifference that visitors feel in the capital. Guadalajara is visitor friendly and it’s navigable - you can learn your way around, safely take the metro, it’s clean and and people-friendly. There’s some excellent and pretty comprehensive photos of the city of Guadalajara and the surrounding areas here.

And in addition to the excellent health care system and the all the shopping and the culture, you always find a team of cutting-edge designers, dedicated to sleek, modern-feeling craft and architecture. You might put down one of these houses in cities all around the world, but they feel right at home in Guadalajara. You can visit when ever you like.
