Travelling the Historic Downtown is not enough: there will always be a plaza where you want to sit down to take a coffee, a temple that you will wish to see again, and a museum that you missed. The truth is that there are always details that stop you: looking to the interior yard of a house, discovering a gargoyle in a balcony, or taking some steps back because the smell of a food stand turned to be more important than the visit to the museum. In Queretaro you have to take things calmly, because here nobody is in a hurry.

The Acueduct is without any doubt, the emblem of the city. Its 74 majestic arches are expanded throughout one kilometer, incorporating themselves in an urban landscape and unifying the Viceregal Queretaro with its modern façade. It was built in the XVII century by the Marquis Don Juan Antonio de Urrutia y Arana, in order to solve the hydraulic needs of the city. At that time, factories had polluted the water of the rivers and the population suffered thirst. The Marquis had the water brought from the other extreme of the city and distributed it in fountains and deep pools. The legend says that the Marquis was in love of a nun, Sister Marcela, from the Santa Clara convent who asked him the construction of this work to solve the terrible problem that Queretaro suffered.
