Reviewed By martha5447

As many have said, Mexico doesn't brag about it's beautiful plazas. This is a beautiful garden surrounded by beautiful architecture and when you take a seat, you will slow down and just absorb all the beauty that San Luis Potosi has to offer. Don't rush, enjoy the people, the food, the day. This is in the center of town and it's lovely.

Here's another great spot to take a seat, plan your day, people watch, take in the history, the trees are lovely. Enjoy your time in this great city that is fairly unknown to USA tourists. Maybe that's why I love it.

They are not always open so be sure you get a right day and time. It's in the center of city so it's no loss if you have to return or wait. It's a wonderful museum. I love seeing the different masks of Mexico.Staff was friendly and the museum shop was great with many locally made crafts.

Tamasopo Falls

Reviewed By flora9912 - San Diego, United States

Out of all the places we visited in the area this was the most touristy and accessible, so relaxing to sit under the waterfalls and feel the refreshing waterfall on you, there was small rivers and old stone arches around felt so magical and peaceful, watershoes are a must there are restaurants and restrooms unlike some other nature landmarks in the area

Museo Silva Federico

Reviewed By An0nyMs

As I slowly walked through the exhibition of massive sculpture by Fererico Silva, I felt like I was in a major art museum in a big city. The building is interesting, too; the architecture adds to the works of art. I'll include a photo of a narrow stairway down to a lower level and the ground-floor entrance beyond.
