Everything to Know About Cheap Flights to San Luis Potosí
Flights to San Luis Potosí from USA
San Luis Potosí is the capital of the eponymous state and one of Mexico’s most historically significant and most architecturally extraordinary colonial cities — a UNESCO World Heritage city (declared 2010 jointly with Zacatecas as the ‘Historic Center of the Capital City of San Luis Potosí’) whose extraordinary wealth derived from the silver mines of the surrounding region during the colonial era. The extraordinary Plaza de Armas (flanked by the Cathedral, the Government Palace with its extraordinary mural cycle, and the colonial arcades of the portales), the Barrio Francés (the extraordinary French-influenced 19th-century residential district, Mexico’s finest Haussmannian quarter), and the extraordinary Museo de la Máscara (one of Mexico’s finest mask collections) create a city of surprising cultural depth. The Wirikuta desert pilgrimage site (2h northeast — the sacred peyote cactus desert of the Huichol/Wixáritari people, one of Mexico’s most extraordinary indigenous sacred landscapes) and the extraordinary Real de Catorce ghost town (2.5h north — a semi-abandoned silver mining town accessible through a single-lane tunnel, with extraordinary high-desert scenery) are the region’s premier day trips.
