Leon vacations | Leon vacations and Leon vacation packages

Leon not only attracts visitors and residents with its great commerce and industry, it is also an enticing place for a pleasant vacation where you can walk along beautiful streets flanked by colonial buildings, such as the Cathedral and the Expiatory Temple. For a fantastic experience, venture into the Zoo and experience up close the assorted animal species. After this, have fun and learn with children in the Explora Sciences Center

Among all the privileges of Leon, we must mention that it is a worthy representative of Mexican cuisine. People from Leon have a predilection for meat dishes, for example, the famous "carnitas" (a type of fried pork), "birria" (bouillon with lamb), "menudo," and the traditional "Guacamayas" (crisp pork rind in salt bread with chili sauce). However, we cannot leave out delicious snacks such as "caldos de oso" (chunks of jicama and fresh cheese with lemon juice seasoned with chili and vinegar), or "chalupas" (slices of cucumber with onion, cheese, and vinegar), a perfect hangover antidote after a long night of partying.

When night falls in Leon, and the big industries and stores have closed their doors, it is time to have fun. Nightlife in Leon is like the rest of life here, varied and fancy. Walking along the streets, you find a great diversity of music and places to enjoy it, from popular banda music (polka music) with its peculiar ranch style - men and women wearing jeans and their Texan hats proudly while dancing to its rhythms - to the most fashionable nightclubs and discos where the night merges with multicolored lights, and DJ's make youth dance with the best remixes. This is how night is lived in this city, with Leon's warm and fun ambience.

The importance of the footwear and leather industries in Leon is undoubtedly a good excuse to go shopping. On city streets, you will find everything from small shoe stores attended by their owners to huge malls with stores specializing in sales of all kinds of clothing and articles made from the highest-quality leather. Leon, thanks to its leadership in the production of leather articles, has been named "World's Capital of Leather and Shoes." It is unforgivable to be in this remarkable city and not visit the malls and establishments that are exclusively dedicated to the sale of these products.
