Michoacan:
A state
with abundant natural resources, Michoacan is one of
Mexico's main producers of agricultural products. With a
territory that takes in everything from tree-studded
hills and forests to verdant, water-rich valleys and a
lush and wild coastline along the Pacific, there is an
endless variety of attractions for the visitor.
Inland
are such delights as the site of the annual migration of
monarch butterflies, villages specializing in wood,
clay, straw, stone and metal crafts, placid, cool lakes
and waterfalls, ancient archeological sites and towns of
beautiful, colonial architecture.
On the
coast lie largely undeveloped, white-sanded coves and
beaches that are a great attraction to surfers and those
looking for uncrowned shores.
