Cuna de Allende #1, on the Jardin or main square: This was Ignacio Allende’s home and is now a museum and gallery. One of the most interesting aspects of this experience is to see how people lived in the early days of San Miguel.

El Charco del Ingenio, above the Los Balcones neighborhood. If you like the outdoors, this is a wonderful place to spend a morning. This beautiful botanical garden is set on the edge of a canyon and has many tranquil walking trails. It also features an impressive collection of cacti, many of them priceless. On warm days, it is best to go early before it gets too hot. Wear comfortable shoes and bring a bottle of water. They have a small café and gift shop where you can also purchase something to drink. There is a small entrance fee to support the park and their research.

This is the best grocery store in San Miguel, hands down! It is owned by the same people who own La Comer, but much more on the high end. Fresh fish and a great meat department. The bakery is excellent too. The beer and wine departments are also over the top. It looks like a classy department store rather than a supermarket. There is also a great tapas bar as well as a fresh seafood bar, in case you get hungry while shopping.

About 20 minutes out of town on the road to Dolores Hidalgo, this is a funky but a fun place to enjoy the thermal waters of San Miguel. The food is decent if you plan to make a day of it. You can take a taxi or a driver, depending on the number of people in your party.
