The attraction of San Miguel de Allende is not only the city center and its colonial architecture, but also the natural and medicinal phenomenon that hides beneath the earth: the hot springs.
This municipality, which is considered a world heritage site by UNESCO, is surrounded by hot springs. Spas on the outskirts of the urban area offer a space for rest, relaxation and also healing.
