Guanajuato

Guanajuato City, #Mexico the birthplace of the country’s independence.
The walk up to Pipila viewpoint will take your breath away because it's steep but it's well worth it. Go before noon when the sun makes the buildings shine!
Sunrise over Guanajuato as seen from Calle Tecolote, just a 3 minute steep walk from Santo Cafe. If you keep going up, you eventually reach Pipila, a monument that overlooks the city.

Property is okay but you can hear everything as the walls are thin. I stayed here with family and people complained that we were supposedly too loud and we were told to keep it down mind you this was still day time. You basically have to whisper
