Zacatecas February 2 - 4, 2016

Zacatecas  Feb 2 – 4 2016

Our stay in Zacatecas is at the Hotel Baruk.  The main parking area of the hotel also has triple hook up for the RV’s.  Our caravan nearly filled the lot to overflow status but we all managed to get in. 

We had a wonderful tour of the city.  A tour to the top of Cerro de la Bufa (Bufa Hill) at an altitude of 8,770 feet, provided a spectacular view of the city!  We were bussed to the top and came down via the tram. Waiting for the next tram to arrive we spotted a worker on the top of the unit doing some inspection or repairs.  A short walk from the tram was the El Eden silver mine.  We opted out of this part of the tour and met up with the group at the exit of the mine a few blocks away.   Our tour continued with lunch at a Brazilian BBQ. The day continued with a walking tour of the Centro and an open air bus tour to some of the beautiful areas of the city.
