| Description: | Here the old, unpaved cobbled road, brings you to another very old town with a fort, almost never visited by foreigners. The path brings you past abandoned mango groves and mountains leading down into an agricultural basin where they grow mostly agave (used to make Tequila). Magdalena is a beautiful city, with the cathedral, built by Franiscans as a monastery, completed in the mid 1700s. I stayed in a bed at the local Catholic Church, and had a very interesting conversation with the local priest, which I will tell you more about soon. |
