Barra de Navidad a "Pueblo Mágico"?

The mayor of Cihuatlan is asking to have it considered in this YouTube press conference.   Everyone I know seriously doubts it will happen.   Maybe just looking for another source of finance for the troubled town.




To be considered a town needs most of these to qualify

Arquitectura: Consider the harmony and general conservation of architectural, civil or public, that give character and identity to the town. Not necessarily must be populated with historical monuments, but also villages or vernacular architecture of the twentieth century.

Edificios emblemáticos: Highlight buildings, for its style, history and majesty are, by themselves, an attractive element for visitors.

Fiestas y Tradiciones: As part of the intangible cultural heritage, it is worth noting the importance of local festivals as cultural elements that sustain life in the community.

Producción Artesanal: A sign of creation and imagination of the people in its population presents craft as part of the magic that surrounds them.

Cocina Traditional: element of fundamental importance to highlight the nature of identity and its link to cultural tourism traditional cuisine can be enjoyed in its original context.

Free Breakfast?

Looks like Nacho's Restaurant is having free breakfasts this month (all month?) or maybe only on Independence Day the 16th. I somehow think the menu will be limited ... but that's alright.   Check it out.

Health Clinic in Barra closes


Poor health services in Barra de Navidad, a tourist destination and they can not guarantee the right of people to basic health services. This weekend the clinic closed by saying that the doctor became ill and no one can replace him.

Barra is a tourist destination on the Costalegre and is promoted for the full holiday season so it's not recommended to get sick or have an emergency because no one can replace the doctor.
