Independence Hill
Originally used as a defensive gun emplacement for the defense of the city, the hill is a relaxing and inviting park that provides panoramic vistas of the town, lying in a bowl-shaped valley below. A number of statues and monuments are found here as well as a site museum that explains the town's historical role in Mexico's battle for independence from the Spanish Empire.
Basilica of Our Lady of Remedies
Although locals sometimes call this church La Catedral, it is not actually a cathedral as no bishop is in residence. Its designation as a basilica reflects its spiritual and historical significance, as designated by the Pope.
