Zimapán
8.4
Mid score (6-8)
A Pueblo Mágico mining town in western Hidalgo set in dramatic Sierra Gorda canyon country. The town has silver and zinc mining history that's partially still active, and the Zimapán hydroelectric reservoir dramatically changed the surrounding geography when the dam was completed in the 1990s. The Pueblo Mágico designation means there's some tourism infrastructure — a kept colonial center, local crafts, a couple of visitor-oriented hotels. A foreign man here fits into the visitor framework comfortably but the town is small and the social scene closes early.
