China to be honored guest at 35th Festival Cervantino in Guanajuato
Celebrating Independence Day in San Miguel de Allende
It’s party time in Mexico with the
Independence Day celebrations around the corner. So raise your tequila glass
and rock out Mexican style to celebrate the holiday that commemorates Mexico’s Independence.
One of the best experiences to celebrate this Mexican holiday is to join the
crowd in San Miguel de Allende, in the state of
Guanajuato. A very traditional celebration is the Entrada
de Los Insurgentes, which means the “Entrance
of the Revolutionaries.” This event commemorates the beginning of the
fight for independence in San Miguel de Allende, by
recreating the same happening that took place in 1810. The act replicates the
entrance of the soldiers, riding their horses, into the Jardín,
or Garden. This is held every 16th of September at 4:15 pm.
San Miguel de Allende, apart from being a city with
pleasant weather, with numerous and fun activities, it is a place for
discovering true traditional Mexico.
The evening concludes with joyful folkloric dances and colorful fireworks.
Hacienda de las Flores is a great option to
stay at and experience a historical atmosphere.
