Ruta Don Vasco Travel Guide — Things to Do, Food & Hotels
About Ruta Don Vasco
The route consists of a core axis of major cities and side trips to nearby towns and villages. The major cities areMorelia,Patzcuaro, andUruapan. (The route officially includes Cuitzeo, but as a traveler, I'd rather start in Morelia and then go to Patzcuaro.) The side trips are basically two widely separated loops. The first one, centered around Patzcuaro is referred to as "Alma de Vasco". It includes Morelia, Tupátaro, Pátzcuaro, Santa Clara del Cobre, Zirahuén, Tzintzuntzan, and Santa Fe de la Laguna. The second loop is centered on Uruapan and is referred to as "Esencia Purepecha". It includes Tingambato, Uruapan, Paracho de Verduzco, Nurio, Cocucho, Charapan, Zacán, and Nuevo San Juan Parangaricutiro. Most foreigners scratch their heads wondering, "Who theheckis this guy Don Vasco?" Wel
