Mexico - Hidalgo Garden

Tlaquepaque is a small town of artisans very close to Guadalajara. Its Plaza and the Church of Saint Peter are the heart of the "Villa Alfarera" as it called.

This is from Wikipedia : San Pedro Tlaquepaque, also known as Tlaquepaque (Spanish pronunciation: [tlakeˈpake]), Georgetown or simply San Pedro, is a small town and the surrounding municipality in the Mexican state of Jalisco. During the 20th century it was absorbed by the outward spread of the state capital and is now a neighbourhood of the Guadalajara conurbation, lying only a few kilometres from the city centre. The city had a 2005 census population of 542,051, while the municipality had a population of 563,006. The municipality's area is 270.88 km2 (104.59 sq mi) and lies adjacent to the south side of Guadalajara. Its largest community besides Tlaquepaque is the town of Santa Anita, at the municipality's southwestern corner (read further).
