Beskrivelse
Take a full-day trip out of Mexico City to visit Taxco, a town with a rich history that predates the colonial era by thousands of years. Taxco is renowned for its silver craftsmanship, which has roots in the skills and knowledge of Indigenous peoples who first mined these lands long before Spanish colonisation. One of the highlights of your visit will be Santa Prisca, a church built in 1759 by José de la Borda.
While in Taxco, you can explore an ancient pre-Hispanic mine, a testament to the sophisticated mining techniques developed by Indigenous communities between 1400 and 1500. This site offers a glimpse into their deep connection to the land and the resources it provided, long before the arrival of European colonisers. Taxco's legacy as a centre for silver continues today, where local artisans carry forward their craft, combining traditional techniques with modern creativity.
By visiting local workshops, you can see these artisans' work firsthand, appreciating the skills passed down through generations and supporting their artistry by purchasing unique, high-quality silver pieces.
