Chapel of Jimmy Ray Gallery

We have created a 2.5 Acre Art installation.......You have to see it to appreciate it...The Gallery shows the work of Anado McLauchlin and guest artists.....The whole site is full of mosaic whimsy and delightful mirth!

I’ve never seen anything like this place in my life. The whole house, and surrounding structures are completely covered in mosaics and other bizarre creations. Definitely worth the trip.

Museo Regional de Guanajuato Alhondiga de Granaditas

This huge stone granary was the site of the first major Mexican victory against the Spanish in the War of Independence.

Reviewed By PaulPapich - San Miguel de Allende, Mexico

This massive building is a history museum, an art museum, an anthropologiacl museum, and, best of all, the very place where one of the most important events in Mexican history actually occurred. Don't be fooled by the drab exterior. Inside you will find the story of European colonization and its many horrors, the struggle for independence from its oppressive yolk, and the courage and determination of the Mexican people portrayed in the most vivid detail. This is a "must see" while in Guanajuato.

This is a beautiful public square just to sit and watch people and listen to the Mariachi bands. Really enjoyable.

One of our guides described it as the living room of SMA. Just before sunset people of all ages fill the zocalo. It's exciting to watch and walk around

This is more often called El Jardin and is the large square in the center of the city. There is plenty of shade, with benches and a gazebo in the center. Shops and restaurants surround the space.
