Morelia

Morelia is the capital of the state of Michoacan.
A bit of history since there is so much here.

The first Viceroy of Mexico ordered the founding of the city in 1541 under the name Valladolid.
The name was later changed to honor the revolutionary hero José María Morelos, who was born here.
Morelia was intended as a bastion of Spanish culture for the region's large population of Indians.
The adjective people most frequently use to describe Morelia is "aristocratic."
and indeed, the city's greatest appeal lies in its grand colonial architecture,
thanks to a century-old historical preservation code requiring all downtown buildings to maintain original facades.
