Michoac\u00e1n is one of the prettiest regions in the world, referred to as \u201cMexico\u2019s soul\u201d since 2002.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Michoac\u00e1n is located in the midwestern part of Mexico. Its largest cities are the state capital of Morelia, P\u00e1tzcuaro and Uruapan, connected to the world through an extensive infrastructure of communication (airports, ground transportation, inbound tourism operators) which make it easy to reach from anywhere in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is one of the richest states in terms of lakes, forests, and other natural beauties such as the Monarch Butterfly Sanctuaries, the Paricut\u00edn Volcano, Eduardo Ruiz National Park, Cam\u00e9cuaro Lake National Park; as well as the lakes of P\u00e1tzcuaro, Zirahu\u00e9n, and Chapala – which hosts a remarkable migration of pelicans travelling from the northern hemisphere during the winter; the Sierra Coast, where various sea turtles come to reproduce, and a variety of bathing spots with cold or thermal waters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The true Mexico, with its colors, flavors, traditions and customs can be found in the state\u2019s diverse regions, the Don Vasco Route, in our nine Magical Towns: P\u00e1tzcuaro, Tzintzuntzan, Santa Clara del Cobre, Tac\u00e1mbaro, Paracho, Tlalpujahua, Angangueo, Cuitzeo and Jiquilpan, as well as colonial cities like Morelia and Zamora.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
