Casa de Cultura - The Profesor Nestor Agundez Cultural Center located two blocks up Benito Juarez from the Hotel California has a historical library, gallery, ongoing cultural activities, workshops and a museum of local history and anthropology. (correct name Centro Cultural Profesor Nestor Agundez Martinez)
El Molino - Once a sugar refinery, this park is now a historic monument and is full of relics of an earlier era.
Festival del Pilar - Delightful, weeklong end-of-summer festival. If you plan to attend, arrive early in the morning and enjoy a whole day of browsing through street-side art exhibits. The streets are closed and filled with booths offering locally made leather goods, pottery and more. Enjoy the food stands full of traditional items and many carnival-style treats. The afternoons bring music and dancing that continues into the evening.
