Guanajuato: A romantic mountain town with colorful houses at the foot of the mountain

#ItineraryShare 1I The Romance of Guanajuato #1 I have always had a soft spot for mountain cities, including Cusco in Peru, La Paz in Bolivia, and Chefchaouen in Morocco. I always feel that the mountain city is the crystallization of mankind and nature. Since no one can move the mountains, we are acquainted with them. Walking at the bottom of the mountain city is like walking at the bottom of a valley. It is easy to get lost and you cannot see the ever-changing world outside. But once you reach the top of the mountain city, the view suddenly opens up, but the densely packed houses make you feel insignificant. In Guanajuato, the place where you can see the entire old town is called E Pipila. It is within walking distance from the city center Plaza de Los Angeles, or you can take a cable car to the mountain in a few minutes. The Guanajuato seen from the mountain is a pleasing watercolor painting, a puzzle filled with all the colors in the world. The houses at the foot of the mountain look like the models we played with in childhood, and are just the right distance away from the tourists on the mountain. Some people say that Guanajuato is the prototype of the paradise in the movie "Coco", and it does look a bit like it. I was fascinated by the way the colors of the houses at the foot of the mountain changed with the sunlight, but suddenly I remembered that the people living on the top of the mountain were all poor, and my heart suddenly ached.
