  • Meet your local guide at the subway station by the elevator. (Estación Independencia - Línea 3).
  • This Independence monument was inaugurated in 1910 during the celebrations for dictator Porfirio Díaz's visit from Mexico City. It is a replica of the Angel of Independence in the capital.
  • It serves as the main square of the Analco neighborhood, located directly in front of the parish of San José. During the viceregal era, this site hosted the street market for product exchanges, while the royal court also resolved conflicts and criminal cases here. Today, visitors can enjoy the gardens, fountain, and sports fields.
  • Founded in 1543, it predates the Guadalajara Cathedral. Its style is eclectic, featuring Baroque and Renaissance elements alongside elements of Roman architecture. Inside, there is the chapel of the Virgen de la Salud, which celebrates a pilgrimage in style every year on the fourth Sunday of October.
  • Try the most traditional ice cream in the Analco neighborhood. Here, artisanal ice creams are prepared with organic fruit and natural sweets. They have been serving customers for decades, thanks to their more than 15 delicious flavors.
  • In this garden, a traditional bandstand stands at the center of the square. Opposite it is the old hermitage of San Sebastian; today, the temple of San Sebastian Martir, built in the 17th century, occupies that location. Additionally, there is a monument known as the Stele Against Oblivion, dedicated to the explosions that occurred in the neighborhood on April 22, 1992.
  • Monumento Estela Contra Olvido
    Monument honoring the tragic explosions that occurred in Analco on April 22, 1992.
  • Templo de San Sebastian de Analco
    The temple was built in the 17th century using indigenous labor. Its architectural style combines indigenous and European traditions. A clear example of cultural syncretism in Mexico.
  • Established in the 1940s, it was the first market in the city to feature a gate made of wrought iron. It is also known as the "elotes" market, as it serves as a production and distribution center for corn and its derived products (tamales, atole, tortillas, tostadas, etc).
  • After the historic walk, take a moment to enjoy local food at Tortas Analco, a food stand that has been serving authentic Mexican cuisine since 1957. (Included in price)
