best city in the best state of mexico
It's such a beautiful and interesting place! Loved visiting there
I’m there in December for my first time in State. 3th time in Mexico i can not wait
That's great! I've been to the state of Guanajuato four times I think now, and there is so much to see and do. I've also posted some videos of San Miguel de Allende (which is also in the state of Guanajuato) here on my CZcams channel in case you need ideas for that city, and I'll be posting more soon on the city of Guanajauto, the capital of the state. Have a great trip!
@@departure_level 🙏🏼 thank you can not wait yes gonna check it out
It's my birthplace and it's off the charts!
This was my first visit and I really loved it - it's a beautiful city with a lot to see and do. Can't wait to go back!
Jajajaja
I'm from Vista Hermosa, where are you from?
My dad is from a village 30 minutes away from this city. I also cheer for the local soccer club Leon! 🦁
I’ve been to Leon, and I remember it’s plazas!
Very cool -- Leon is a great city and Guanajuato is one of my favorite Mexican states. Such a beautiful area!
Very nice! I want to visit.
It really is an interesting place, kind of off the beaten path for most tourists, and it can easily be combined with visits to nearby cities like San Miguel de Allende and Guadalajara!
I love ❤️ my lovely city and I still have the tastes and smells in my heart ❤️!!
Your city is amazing!! I had a great time there
Im glad to hear promoved my beautiful City leon
¡Es una ciudad espectacular! Me encanta :)
Looks beautiful!!
The architecture downtown is really amazing!
It’s very beautiful place
I love my city, is been 18 years since I moved to Arkansas and I still missed walking el centro.
León really is a beautiful city! I'm so glad I got to visit and hope to go back.
Curiously, I found this video and I'm from León Guanajuato
That's great - I love your city!
lol I live in Leon. I LEARNED from your video hahaaha TY TY
Wow now that's especially nice to here! And that's so cool that you live there. Thanks for watching the video!
You should visit "Explora" also here
Oh yes, I want to during my next visit. Thanks Jaime!
@@departure_level you're welcome anytime!
Visit La Borboleta León to dinner
Do you need A/C or heating throughout the year?
Guacamayas are dope.
They truly are tasty!!
What about the leon stadium
I actually haven't visited the stadium - I need to do that next time! Are there specific events at the stadium that you recommend seeing?
@@departure_level from what I remembered is there’s a HUGE fair at the Leon stadium in January… but ever since Covid I’m not sure when it’ll be coming up .. possibly January 2022
@@vanessadelgado6246 yes I’ve heard that the fair is a big deal. I think it’s coming back for 2022!
France,the USSR,Hungary and Canada played Group C matches at Leon in the Mexico 86 World Cup,and the USSR v Belgium second round (last 16) match took place there as well.
@@rjjcms1 That's so cool, I didn't know that!
Then I came here to know what to visit in this city but still, the same things that everyone goes... Psst, I'll tell you about more places here in León.
I'm from this city and it's quite boring lol
@@eberlazting yeah, but still there are few more places to visit than downtown and calzada.
There are some places that could become landmarks like el Calvario, Cerro Gordo, Ibarrilla.
And transform actual places into something more attractive like Coecillo, León Moderno, At the north of the city they can make a scenic viewpoint, as in Bellavista, me, for my personal taste, the old places or abandoned places could be turistic too, for example the "abandoned" buildings in Adolfo López Mateos, a tower in Leon Moderno, there's a place in San Pedro that looks like an Hacienda.
And add to the list of places to visit actual places like El palote, the zoo, some parks like Parque Hidalgo, Chapalita, mall centers (I'm not a big fan, but the city can make them attractive to the tourists).
Cañada could also become a landmark, something like a place to go in between the city.
There are plenty of opportunities, but no one is interested in. They've found in Madero street a mine of gold.
@@kingastaroth7912 wow you really know the city! I havent visited those hoods in a while but some are infamous for being dangerous like chapalita and coecillo. I agree with you, even events like the balloon festival or the racecar rally are badly organized and now seem boring to attend
León Guanajuato, la visitas en una hora no hay nada que ver .
It's also the most dangerous place in Mexico. 95% of death ,comes with Criminal activity. Stay safe and do your research
Not true lol.
Fairly safe place. Especially when compared to other places. maybe you should do your own research bud.
Oh god, I should have dead a couple of years ago...
Just don't walk in sketchy places at night and you'll be fine.
Eso las zona más Populares.
