I love Tlaquepaque! It is definitely one of the cutest, prettiest and most charming neighbourhoods/Pueblos Mágicos I have ever been to. It has a small central park with a cute pavilion decorated with flags, a charming old town, which is also partly decorated with flags, and where jewellery and souvenirs are sold on a few corners. Apart from that, there is a really beautiful sign in Tlaquepaque and bronze figures that cheerfully head towards the old part of the town. Really cute.
I admit, Tlaquepaque doesn’t have much – really, it doesn’t – but this neighbourhood simply stole my heart. It’s so cute and the vibe is so calm and relaxed and sweet and… Tlaquepaque is really worth a little trip. It’s like a little break from Guadalajara. Because, just like Zapopan, Tlaquepaque is actually IN Guadalajara, but when you’re there, it feels completely like you’re in a small village or town near Guadalajara.
Go or not? Yes, one hundred percent. I think Tlaquepaque is one of the highlights of Guadalajara. So if you’re in Guadalajara, don’t miss Tlaquepaque 😊
