San Luis Potosi

A silver-boom colonial centre with baroque churches funded entirely by mining fortunes, a ghost town an hour out that emptied overnight when the mine failed, and a desert region famous for a cactus used in the country's oldest recorded rituals.
The best time to visit San Luis Potosi is Oct–Feb, when typical daytime highs reach about 25°C (77°F).
