Another of the hundreds of magical towns in the Mexican geography is Chignahuapan. Its name comes from the Nahuatl language and means ”where water abounds”. During pre-Hispanic times it was inhabited by the Totonacs. It is currently part of the list of Magical Towns of Mexico since 2012.

Its popularity lies in the fantastic landscapes that the territory offers, as well as its hot springs, the lagoon and its religious buildings or places most frequented by its neighbors, such as the zocalo or the kiosk. It is also recommended to taste the typical local dishes such as lamb consommé or mole poblano.
