Chihuahua is a colonial city with elegant buildings and wide boulevards. However, it’s best known as the first stop on the Chepe Railway that traverses the majestic Copper Canyon (or the last stop, depending on your perspective). The city’s nightlife is particularly lively, where some of the large estate houses have been turned into nightclubs and dance halls – many featuring the best of Chihuahua's live bands.

Fun Fact: Chihuahua has maintained much of its historic character in its buildings and museums, including the preserved house where Pancho Villa once lived.
