Have you heard of Leon, Mexico? This city is considered the "Leather Capital of Latin America" and it also hosts a massive carnival called Feria de Leon with mouthwatering food, authentic leather products, games, and a REIK concert!

I'm taking my solo female traveling to the next level in this Mexico travel vlog! I started in Ajijic, Jalisco where I currently live. For this trip, some friends were able to drive me to the bus terminal in Guadalajara. From there, I took a 3hour bus to Leon, Guanajuato for the Feria de Leon, one of the biggest fairs in Mexico!

This carnival was filled with scrumptious Mexican food like huaraches, gorditas, and aguas frescas (fresh fruit water). I also played lots of fair games, like my favorite one where you toss rings at CocaCola bottles.

It also had a massive conference center filled with hundreds of vendors selling everything from clothes to highquality leather products to bath&body stuff and everything else you could think of! I spent hours meandering around and getting lost in the madness, walking away with a silver ring, coffee, and some tiny leather shoe keychains at great prices.

I ended my carnival day by seeing my favorite Mexican band @reik ! It was an absolutely phenomenal concert to say the least. And on my last day, I spent hours walking around the famous Zona de Piel (aka Leather District) of Leon. It's there that you can find leather jackets, boots, belts, wallets, bags, and other locally made products made of authentic leather.

What do you think of Leon, Guanajuato? Is it a place you'd visit?
