Monterrey

Monterrey, the capital of Nuevo León, is a modern and thriving city nestled among the mountains of the Sierra Madre Oriental. The Cerro de la Silla, its emblematic mountain, dominates the skyline. The Macroplaza, one of the world's largest plazas, houses the Mexican History Museum and MARCO (Museum of Contemporary Art). Parque Fundidora, a former steel foundry converted into an urban park, is the city's recreational heart. The surroundings offer adventure at Chipinque Ecological Park, the García Caves, and the impressive Cola de Caballo Waterfall. The northern tradition of grilled meat, cabrito, and craft beer is an essential part of Monterrey's identity.
