Morrelia    
Morrelia was probably our favourite town in Mexico.  It has beautiful Colonial architecture and, being one of Mexico's oldest University towns, a vibrant atmosphere and cafe culture.
It is named after Morelos, a priest and independence fighter for Mexico who was born here.  He is usually depicted wearing a headscarf.  Some say he suffered from headaches and he wore the headscarf in the belief that it gave him some relief from them.
There is a fantastic pizza restaurant overlooking the Cathedral.  This is the view from it at night.
Detail of one of Morelia's many churches.
The smart rubbish bins are sponsored by Coca Cola.
