The world capital of silver, colonial city of Taxco, in the state of Guerero. Three hundred stores with silver, that's very impressive!
Two hours (on the bus) away from Mexico City, there's a colonial city of Taxco - the world capital of silver.
The best museum on western hemisphere and probably the best museum in the world.
All the collection and exhibits are absolutely local and genuine, from Mexico alone, were not looted, stolen or in any other way "brought" from other countries for display.
