Sightseeing in Tampico - what to see. Complete travel guide

Since the city is located in a truly picturesque location on the coast of the Persian Gulf, it has quickly begun attracting the attention of travelers. Picturesque beaches and rich nature are ideal for relaxation, while mild climate of the region makes the "velvet" season pretty long. Today there are several large bustling beaches near the center of the city. If you want to have rest in silence in solitude, choose a hotel complex near a cozy distant bay. Beach rest here is organized at the highest level possible. Tourists have an opportunity to stay on the coast all day long because nearby they will find numerous high quality restaurants and entertainment venues, as well as a network of shops and lovely parks where they can shelter from the scorching sun.
Catedral de la Inmaculada Concepción is a fabulous architectural monument in a classical style. It stands in the very center of the city. Over the years, the church managed to preserve the facade decoration with a fancy mosaic in its upper part. The old clock tower is also preserved there. The tower is rather high and serves as a kind of a guide for tourists whilst out hiking. The reconstruction of the church was completed not so long ago. It was redecorated.

Of particular interest are the historic buildings that remained in commercial areas. Today, many of them house popular restaurants and hotels. Tourists have an opportunity to admire their appearance and appreciate the interior.

No less attractive place for a stroll is Las Escolleras pier. There is an old lighthouse on its endpoint. Here, you can admire huge ships sailing by, and feed clever raccoons, which are multiple in the area. In the evening, many attractive restaurants and bars are open near the pier. This district is considered one of the most romantic in the city. The most spectacular pictures can be done in the morning when the number of tourists walking down the beach is not so great.
