About
Villahermosa
In
this city, cobblestoned streets surrounded by majestic buildings merge into a
mythical place where the shades turn in vivid colors and exuberant
nature. Villahermosa (beautiful village), as its name indicates, is a
beautiful city that balances modern buildings with a historic heart.
Villahermosa was
attacked by American and French invaders between 1846 and 1864,
basically wiping it off the face of the earth. This is why in this 450
year-old city, only nineteenth and twentieth century buildings and
monuments are preserved. Some of them open to the public since they
turned into museums, that you will be able to admire during your
vacation in Villahermosa.
Villahermosa seems to be a young city of less than a century year old,
due to its large and modern residential areas, its gorgeous natural
parks, different malls and its pretty and wide avenues surrounded by
vegetation. However, you do not realize that this city has a rich
historic past until the moment that you delve into its culture.
