5 Things to do Adventurous in Guadalajara That You Shouldn't Miss
The inland city of Guadalajara is bursting with history and culture. Many attractions are in the city's historic center and in the neighboring city of Zapopan. Museums, parks and churches flourish alongside bullfights, rodeos and soccer (futbol). Nearby are the towns of Tequila, where the liquor of the same name is produced, and Tlaquepaque and Tonala, where artisans create an abundance of Mexican handicrafts. Mariachi, which originated in the area, is a common sight and sound in Guadalajara.

You have 60 minutes to overcome a mountain of brain twisting puzzles and escape from a themed room. If you feel like saving the world you can play the "Cold War Bunker", or if you are in for the bank robbery or the century, play our "Central Bank".

We went to Lucha Libre "Glamour" on a Tuesday night, arrived a half hour before the event and bought tickets (see rant below) for Ring 2 and sat 4 rows away from the madness. The entire show is completely ridiculous and incredibly entertaining, definitely worth the cost, and the crowd was equally amusing with their own crude chants and drums(?!). Didn't feel like a tourist trap at all, you could tell there were a lot of regulars, and the fighters interact with the crowd in hilarious ways. It's really a spectacle unlike any other. My only advice is to avoid buying your tickets in advance online!!!! We bought Ring 1 tickets from Ticketmaster for $350 pesos each ($17 USD, the actual cost) but didn't see the disclaimer that you have to arrive AT LEAST 2 HOURS BEFORE THE SHOW. As you'll see in most other posts, the neighborhood the coliseum is in is not great to spend time in at night - you literally see hookers and drug dealers on the corners and the alleys surrounding the venue are what nightmares are made of. Why, then, would a huge company like Ticketmaster ask that people hang around for 2 hours - something I have never seen for any event ever? When we got to the ticket window to show our tickets, the guy was shocked that we were so late (again, 30 minutes before the fight, lines were not crazy, there is signage about the policy) and said he couldn't honor out seats or payment, so we bought new ones. Also TM will automatically set you up with the "best" seats (Ring 1), where you may end up with a 350 lb man in your lap, or at the very least a michelada, at the highest available price. Lastly, trying to get a refund from TM is a whole other circus that is just not worth the energy. Enjoy the full experience, absolutely go, and buy your tickets when you arrive - it's highly unlikely they will be sold out!
