Guadalajara Maps and Orientation

A vast city with a population of some four million people, Guadalajara is the state capital and located within Jalisco, in south-western Mexico. Guadalajara is Mexico's second city after the country's capital of Mexico City, which is sited to the north-west.

The very heart of Guadalajara is dominated by its magnificent twin-towered cathedral, which is surrounded by four large public plazas. Located on the eastern side of Guadalajara cathedral, the Plaza de la Liberación is especially notable and lies next to the Degollado Theatre. Further east, the lively pedestrianised precinct of the Plaza Tapatia leads to the Instituto Cultural de Cabanas, while to the south, you will find the Mercado Libertad, a vast three-floor market.
