Established in 1912, this cosmopolitan city, which remembers the Saltillan poet Manuel Acuña, commonly offers contrasting types of fun. During the day, the streets are dressed with arts and crafts and alive with hubbub and movement. Then, at night, they are transformed with exciting neon lights and offer unforgettable evenings. As its plazas, parks, temples and museums inspire rest and serenity, the Amistad Dam bursts with the excitement of sport.

Mexicans and foreigners alike come and go through its streets, which offer full-service hotels, festive shop windows with the perfect souvenirs, and restaurants with the most delicious cuisine.
