For instance, the historical bridge, built over the San Juan river in 1847, is a landmark that is worth the visit. Besides, built with pink quarry stone in the XVIII century, the parish is really beautiful to admire. Other interesting place to visit is the colonial style church of Santo Domingo. Visitors should not miss the Museum of the Death or of the Santa Veracruz. A great collection of jewelry, archaeological pieces, and paintings are exhibited here. And among many gorgeous "haciendas", the "Hacienda de la Llave", with an impressive neoclassical facade should also be visited.
Two important festivities held in San Juan del Rio are the Feasts of San Juan, in June, with agricultural, industrial, handicrafts, and gastronomic exhibitions; and, in September, the Independence Celebrations, that is recommended to be attended. | |
