San Miguel de Allende, Mexico

San Miguel de Allende is a colonial hill town in Guanajuato whose cobbled streets, ochre and terracotta facades and the pink neo-Gothic spires of the Parroquia have earned it UNESCO World Heritage status. Long a magnet for artists and writers, it combines galleries, design shops and rooftop bars with hotels set in historic casonas, hot springs and the vineyards of the surrounding Bajío.
