Thanksgiving in Guanajuato Mexico

In 2023, I decided to take a trip to Guanajuato, Mexico, for Thanksgiving. My immediate family, along with my ex, had no plans for celebrating, so my son and I traded our turkey dinner for tacos. We ate more than tacos, but you get the point. We decided to do it a little differently that year, and it has now become our new tradition. Each year, we decide on a new place to spend Thanksgiving in Mexico to explore.  +

We spent Thursday- Saturday in Guanajuato. It was great we slept in, ordered coffee from Café Conquistador next to our hotel, and 4 delicious restaurants within walking distance. It was great we used an Uber for some of the excursions like when we visited the  Mummy Museum and El Pipila. 

We spent most of our time exploring the city, walking around downtown through the Historical Center, Mercado Hidalgo, Alhondiga Ganaditas, and Jardin Union. 

The Mercado Hidalgo has really good food to go along with the shopping. 

There are plenty of good restaurants to choose from these are just a a few we tried while on our walking tour. We came across a street vendor while walking downtown one night that was selling the best hotdogs we had ever had. We loved them so much that we went back later the next night and yeah they were that good.
