The Best Destinations in Mexico This Autumn

Visiting Mexico is always a fun get-away, and visiting in the autumn offers visitors many benefits, such as the chance for lower prices, smaller crowds, and greater room to explore.  The temperatures are also much cooler, which makes it a much better time to travel for many people who don’t take well to the blazing summer temperatures. 

Today we will look at 5 great autumn destinations in Mexico:

Morelia

If you are in Mexico on November 2nd, Morelia is certainly the place to be.  The Day of the Dead Festival is one of the biggest festivals that the country celebrates.  Despite the name, the celebration is actually quite heartwarming and fun.  With dancing, music and feasting, it is always a sight to see. Take your camera!

Guadalajara
Every September, Guadalajara plays host to the annual International Mariachi and Charro Festival.  Here, musicians from around the world gather to play traditional music that the entire family can get together and enjoy.

Mexico City
Mexican Independence Day is celebrated on the 15th and 12th of September around the nation, and visitors will find that this is an incredible time to visit the city.  Parades, music, food, and entertainment of all types can be found almost everywhere in Mexico, and historic sites are certainly among the top destinations.

San Miguel
This destination is a must see for anyone in the country on the third Saturday in September.  The running of the bulls takes place and is comparable to the event held in Pamplona, Spain.  Dancing, music, and fireworks are all on offer.

Cozumel
This summer destination in Mexico is very pleasant to experience in autumn as well.  You will find that while temperatures are cooler, they are not uncomfortable, and the area’s pristine waters will be far less crowded.
