Night Lights of Guanajuato!

Templo de San Diego
Guanajuato takes on a magical feel at night!  The hillsides glitter and the streets and plazas come alive with minstrels, families, vendors, hopped up cars and tourists. 
The weekends are especially joyful, with large bands of singers in the callejones (alleyways), loudly seranading the surrounding neighborhoods into the wee hours of the morning.  For a small fee, one can join one of these traveling choirs, lead by troubadours OR one can listen from the rooftop terrace while sipping on a touch of grappa. 
Que noche bonito!
Teatro Juarez.  Note the muses at the rooftop!

View from the terrace - Iglesia San Francisco

Plaza de la Paz
