SAN LUIS POTOSI, MEXICO | A day in the Historic Center

We've been staying in San Luis Potosi for a month and I guess it's about time we explore the Historic center. History, tradition, art, and culture, what more could you ask for in a city. San Luis has it all, and we were pleasantly surprised by the beauty! Follow us along as we guide you through a day of the must-dos when in the capital city of San Luis Potosi.
We, of course, start with some amazing food at Cafe Corta'o, take a trolley around the historic center, stroll through the streets, check out quite a few museums, find even more food at a local market, enjoy some rooftop vibes and end it with some more great food! All in all, a solid day in San Luis Potosi's historic center.
We've been staying in a pretty nice Airbnb outside the city center, if you're interested in finding a place for a month like us, you can check out the place we're staying at. Here it is:

    It's on my must visit list. My Great Great Grandfather and Grandmother were born here and grew up there. There names were Anastacia Hernandez and Bernardo Galavis Soto. If anyone is related to them please reach out. I don't know much about Anastacia but Bernardo was born in Aug 29 1870 to Jose Turbicio Galaviz Esquibel and Maria De Buenaventura Soto. He migrated to San Antonio TX with Anastacia.

    After watching your video we went to Cafe Corta'o when we arrived in San Luis Potosi and he made the same promise to us that it would be the best breakfast ever and it certainly lived up to that. We made our own youtube video of it. Thank you so much for sharing this video. We hope you are both well and happy.

    I'm from San Luis Potosí, You may like it the weather is great not too hot or cold but keep in mind this is just the centro histórico (downtown) the city is much bigger, we have a beautiful big park with 2 lakes and a museum inside, there's the carranza avenue wich in Sundays closes and it becomes a ciclovía (for riding bikes) and lots of museums. That's just the city the state of san Luis has 4 different zones each one with different weather and food. I advise you to come and visit before you make a decision.
