Irapuato, México

Irapuato México

Irapuato is a Mexican city in the state of Guanajuato, located in the central part of both the state and the Bajío region. It was founded on February 15, 1547. The city lies at the foot of Arandas Hill, with narrow streets and an irregular, “broken plate” layout that characterizes its historic center, which then expands into wider, more contemporary areas with new neighborhoods and boulevards. The surroundings feature fertile agricultural lands and extensive orchards that cover much of its territory. Irapuato has great strategic importance due to its position in the center of the country and in the heart of the state of Guanajuato.
