San Miguel de Allende


Known for its stunning colonial Spanish architecture, cobblestone streets, thriving arts community, and ideal climate, San Miguel de Allende is a magical city in the heart of Mexico.

Located in Guanajuato State in the Colonial heartland of the country, San Miguel de Allende is a historical town of incredible beauty, a destination for artists and adventurers from around the world. San Miguel de Allende was named a UNESCO world heritage site in 2008 and a "Pueblo Magico” by the Mexican government. 

Founded more than 450 years ago, San Miguel de Allende is named for both the monk Juan de San Miguel and General Ignacio Allende, a hero in Mexico’s War of Independence. San Miguel's unique and charming historic center features a central plaza, known as El Jardin, and the Parroquia de San Miguel Arcangel, a 17th-century church whose pink spires are an anchoring point no matter where you are in the city.  

San Miguel has consistently ranked among the top destinations in the world. Travel + Leisure Magazine named “Best City in the World” by Travel + Leisure Magazine in both 2017 and 2018. CBS News named San Miguel one of the 10 best places to retire overseas, and Conde Nast has listed it as the best small city in the world. It's no surprise that San Miguel de Allende has attracted visitors and residents looking for a special place to call home.
