- Plaza de la Liberación; UNESCO World Heritage Hospicio Cabañas; French Art Nouveau; Teatro Degollado; Puente Matute Remus; Tlaquepaque and Zapopan; Barranca de Huentitán; lush Western Mexican high-plateau flora
- Viewpoint
- Favor the classic viewpoint looking across Plaza de la Liberación or Plaza de Armas toward the Guadalajara Cathedral, showing jacaranda branches and fountain water in the foreground, the French bandstand, stone plaza, and neoclassical colonnades in the middle-ground, and the iconic yellow-tiled twin spires rising majestically against the soft sky in the background.
- Palette
- Green should be the predominant color, especially in the mature jacaranda and ficus tree canopies of the central plazas, Hospicio Cabañas gardens, and canyon rim.
- Guarded against
- Not Mexico City, Monterrey, or Puebla
