 | A fact from Guanajuato (city) appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 21 November 2010 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

The city of Guanajuato is the capital of the state of the same name. It is located at 21.02°N 101.28°W, 370 km (230 miles) northwest of Mexico City, at an elevation of 1'996.44 meters (6,550 ft) above sea level. The estimated population in 2003 was about 78,000 people.
Guanajuato was founded as a town in 1554 and received the designation as a city in 1741. The city is well known for its wealth of fine colonial era Spanish architecture.
In the Panteon catacombs to the west of the city is a famous burial ground noted for the natural mummies produced by the conditions there.
The city of Guanajuato was the birthplace of artist Diego Rivera.
The city it is also sit of one of the largest places where mathematic boils in a public institution called CIMAT.

 | On 29 January 2023, it was proposed that this article be movedtoGuanajuato (city). The result of the discussion was Moved for all except Chihuahua. |
I don't know who wrote that the cemetary tax was repealed and no new mummies have been added but this is false, this october 2 corpses were added due to not paying the tax. Fixed it!
What is your source for this? As a Guanajuato resident I find this hard to believe... Toaster917 08:00, 5 May 2007 (UTC)toaster917[reply]
as a side note, sounds like a weird place
There are walks in the city at night through the callejones, small subterranean streets, where college students play medieval instruments. Twice a year the city has a medieval festival,[1] one during Holy week in March, and the other in mid-December. A medieval fair is organized in the city centre with parades, and Spanish medieval food and music. People dress according to the fashion of that era, and the city is decorated as a village in medieval Spain. The colonial architecture of the city gives the festival an authentic backdrop.

Santa Fe de Guanajuato redirects to Guanajuato, Guanajuato. If it's the same place, then Santa Fe, Guanajuato, should redirect here too. If not, then the redirect should be deleted. Ark25 (talk) 09:37, 31 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
In Line 5: er ... how does one "discover" a mine? And a mine of what? Perhaps "mine" here should read "gold", with subsequent amendments. --Wikiain (talk) 21:23, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Neat article about the sights and history of Gto. municipality, but what about infrastructure issues? Buses, rail, etc. But also, where does one fly into? Say you're a rally fan and want to the the WRC rally in town. I'm sure Gto. has an airport, but where is it and what airlines fly through there?
