I have not written much about Guanajuato, the city. The truth is there is so much to write about. It has to be the most beautiful and romantic cities in Mexico. Narrow alleys and sidewalk cafes. Good food and a level of energy that is not found everywhere. It's easy to just find a bench somewhere and sit and watch all of it come to you. Sitting on the steps of Theatre Juarez is one of my recommendations. One of the best restaurants is just 50 yards down the road. Grab one of the two outside tables and watch the street come to you. That is my preferred hang out now. These minstrels walk and sing in the streets. You follow them through the narrow alleys and stop at wide places. They will blow some sangria at you for a few coins from a ceramic bong looking thing. Most groups will finish at Callejon de Beso. Alley of the Kiss. This alley is so tight that two balconies almost touch on each side of the street. You can lean over and get kiss. Yes, there is a love story involved.
