Dominated by the extinct volcano El Vigia, Santiago Tuxtla
vaguely evokes the charm of historic Taxco. Many of the
historic housing has been preserved and there are
wonderful views from many of its winding streets
The city traces itself to the arrival of Hernan Cortes and for
three centuries dominated the economy and politics of Los
Tuxtlas. Still considered its cultural heart it boasts of a
museum and many annual events, including the Son de
Jarocha festival, and the Dance of the Liseros.
Cattle ranching and agriculture are the focus of its
economy but it is considered one of the poorer counties of
Veracruz.
Touristically it offers a 6 story center city hotel, with a
great view, a few restaurants, a pretty central plaza, and
frequent performances by jarochero musicians.
Located at 18° 28' N, 95° 18' W, the municipio is bordered
by Angel R. Cabada to the north, Isla and Hueyapan de
Ocampo to the south, San Andrés Tuxtla to the east and
Tlacotalpan to the north.
