In Pueblos M gicos: A Traveler's Guide to Mexico's Hidden Treasures, author Chuck Burton takes readers on a journey through 62 towns recognized by the Mexican government's "Pueblos M gicos" (magic towns) program. This initiative highlights small, little-known towns in Mexico that have unique cultural or historical significance. Burton, who has spent many years traveling in and living in Mexico, shares his top ten favorite towns, along with ten "honorable mention" towns and additional "bonus towns" that are also worth visiting. The book is organized into chapters that categorize Mexico's states into four regions: Northern, North Central, South Central, and Southern, each featuring profiles of Pueblos M gicos towns. Included in the guide are photographs of towns, maps showing the locations of all 62 municipalities, an index, and a glossary of Spanish and Mexican terms. The opening sections provide practical information for visitors to the Pueblos M gicos, while the conclusion offers additional travel tips, such as advice on visiting Mexico City and itinerary suggestions for exploring the Pueblos M gicos. The book features photographs of towns and notable sites, a description of the Pueblos M gicos program, and the author's reflections on the reasons why we travel. This guide is an excellent resource for anyone interested in discovering Mexico beyond the usual tourist spots.
