Day 4 - Galeana, MX to Tula, MX

For Day 4, we rode from Galeana, MX south towards our first Pueblo Magico - Tula, MX in the state of Tamaulipas.

We left the quaint town of Galeana and its Benito Juarez Plaza and made our way south. We would be riding on very sparse populated roads and we really enjoyed this riding in rural Mexico.

For lunch we stopped in the small town of Miquihuana, MX and had some difficulty in finding a restaurant but eventually we found a gem. We were served by a lady that was not very friendly but the food was delicious. On the other hand here husband was very nice and he lent Jim some tools so he could fix a bent wheel on his RT.

After lunch we made our way to Tula, MX where we arrived with plenty of time to visit the plaza and enjoy our first Pueblo Magico.

Pueblo Magico towns are usually much cleaner and everything is well painted. 

Tula, MX is considered the oldest city in the state of Tamaulipas and in 2011 was declared a Pueblo Magico. 

We enjoyed this town and were even lucky to participate in fiesta time and see a show, about the state of Oaxaca, on its main plaza. “El Palomo Miahuateco” is a dance from the town of Miahuatlán de Porfirio Díaz, located in the southern part of Oaxaca. This dance is inspired by birds and represents courtship and fertility.

We also loved the hotel (Hotel Rombos) where we had a very nice room overlooking the main plaza.
