Old Colonial Walls

Taxco is graced with old colonial walls that are losing their coats of paint to the all-encroaching test of time. Walking around this small town surrounded by hills and steep cliffs is very therapeutic. In fact, the town seems very condensed, as if it were built to keep you inside and close to everyone there. It is impossible to not be friendly when you are sharing narrow streets, steep stairs and crumbling walls with other people.
