Tepic · Mexico
Founded in 1531 by Nuño de Guzmán, Tepic is the capital of Mexico's Pacific-coast state of Nayarit, set in a valley with the Sierra Occidental in the surrounding terrain and several volcanoes — San Juan, Las Navajas, and Sangangüey — nearby. The city centre has a walkable café and restaurant scene, and the wider region includes a UNESCO World Heritage site. Tepic also serves as a practical base for the Nayarit Riviera coast.
