The land on which the city stands is truly beautiful; a hilly region, with picturesque cobbled streets, surrounded by many lakes and forests. The city is well located and connects with Mexico City, Acapulco, Taxco and Toluca. For this reason, it is not difficult to comprehend why Cuernavaca has become an important area, attracting tourists from around the globe.

Often called the "land of eternal spring," Cuernavaca is known these days as much for its rejuvenating spas and spiritual sites as it is for its perfect climate and flowering landscapes. Spa services are easy to find, but more than that, Cuernavaca exudes a sense of deep connection with its historical and spiritual heritage. Its palaces, walled villas, and elaborate haciendas are home to museums, spas, and extraordinary guesthouses.

The nightlife is rich and varied, and the options for eating out could not be better on your holiday to Cuernavaca. Restaurants in the downtown area and throughout the city (some of which are first class) specialize in regional Mexican dishes that can be enjoyed in spacious gardens. There is also the option of having a refreshing drink in the lively, young atmosphere of the soda fountains located in front of the Palacio de Cortés.

You'll find lots of traditional markets in Cuernavaca, selling a variety of authentic Mexican art and craft work. Cuernavaca is known as a center of "natural energy" in Mexico, and so the sale of "energy bearing" stones, including onyx, quartz and natural crystals which emanate from the nearby Tepozteco Mountains, is commonplace in these parts.
