León, Guanajuato: A colonial town with inviting greens
León is a town with a long of history, located at the heart of one of the most picturesque states in Mexico. It is a typical colonial town of central Mexico with a very unique flavour to it.
León is also a dynamic economic hub, and modern buildings of glass and steel have emerged to testify of it. A visit to the state of the art Polyforum León will convince you that León is clearly a town of the 21st century. This multi-faceted complex hosts an interactive science museum, the Explora Science Centre, as well as a Conventions Hall and a cultural venue hosting all types of quality concerts and shows.
The natural beauty of the surroundings has proved inspirational for many golf course designers, and the Club Campestre de León (León Country Club) is a particularly beautiful 18-hole near the Cerro Gordo, the town's landmark "Fat Hill". |
