Ajijic
An art town on the shore of Lake Chapala, with colorful cobblestone streets full of murals and galleries, and beautiful lakeside sunsets.
Ajijic lies about 7 km west of Chapala town. It is one of Mexico's 'Pueblos Mágicos' and is home to many artists and foreign residents. The town's streets are paved with cobblestones, and the walls are covered in bright murals. The central plaza has a gazebo and the Church of San Andrés, and the lakeside walkway is ideal for watching the sunset. A large open-air market is held on Wednesdays, and the restaurants and cafés are of a high standard. It can be visited on the same day as Chapala town.
