The hotel is housed in a historic castle-like building that was constructed in the early 20th century as a private residence for the wealthy Mexican industrialist, Enrique de Olvera. The castle was inspired by European Gothic architecture and features ornate details such as pointed arches, turrets, and intricate stonework. In the 1930s the property was sold to the Mexican government and it was eventually converted into a hotel. Today, the Castillo Santa Cecilia is a luxurious hotel with 24 guest rooms, each of which is uniquely decorated with antique furnishings and artwork. The hotel offers a range of amenities including a restaurant, bar, outdoor swimming pool and gardens with beautiful views of the surrounding mountains. One of the hotel's main attractions is its impressive collection of artwork, which includes works by famous Mexican artists such as Diego Rivera. The hotel also has a rich history and has hosted many famous guests, including Hollywood stars and political figures.

The Mina de San Cayetano Valenciana, also known simply as Valenciana, is a historic silver mine located near the city of Guanajuato in central Mexico. The mine was first discovered in the late 16th century, and it became one of the most important silver mines in Mexico during the colonial period. The mine is known for its rich history and its impressive engineering, with underground tunnels extending for over 20 kilometers. The mine produced an enormous amount of silver, estimated to be worth billions of dollars by today's standards. The wealth generated by the mine was used to build many of the beautiful colonial-era buildings and churches in Guanajuato. Today, the Mina de San Cayetano Valenciana is open to visitors for tours. Visitors can descend into the mine and see the underground workings, including the original tunnels and shafts. The tour also includes a visit to the mine's museum, which houses a collection of artifacts and tools used by the miners.

Great way to see the mines and a preserved Spanish Hacienda. My guide was knowledgeable and friendly. Do bring bottled water and be prepared for some steps.

Michel was a great guide who brought alive the history of Guanajuato. He was a joy to spend time with. We especially enjoyed the Hacienda and its gardens. What a wonderful story of a wealthy mine baron and the way the ore was processed on the hacienda grounds. Thanks to Michel!
