The city of Chihuahua is the capital of the state of Chihuahua, and was founded in 1709. It is one of the largest cities in the country and has a very active business economy. If you are a geography nut and you need to know how high Chihuahua is above sea level we've got you covered...4,690 feet.
If you are wondering if the name of this city has anything to do with the small dogs that you have seen on the Taco Bell commercials you are right. Seems the Chihuahua pooches had propagated extensively in the area many years ago and the name somehow became attached to the town. At least that's the rumor. And since Carlos Fiesta never lets the truth get in the way of a good story, were sticken' to it.
Southwest of Chihuahua the Tarahumara Indians live, work and play much as they have done for centuries. They are Mexico's largest surviving tribe, still hunting and gathering until the vacas come home. A visit to these areas is a step back in time.
Chihuahua as the end of the line for the Copper Canyon train ride. If you haven't been brought up to speed on this spectacular combination of man and nature, drop by the LOS MOCHIS section of Mexico Expo for more information.
A few of the places to visit in Chihuahua include Lerado Park, the Cathedral, several museums plus the government palaces. The Fiesta de Santa Rita is an annual party that brings the town alive for a few days starting on May 19th, plus the town offers bullfights and concerts on a regular basis.
