A
Museo Regional de Nayarit
Residing in a palatial 18th-century neoclassical house with a lovely courtyard, the Museo Regional de Nayarit presents changing exhibitions concerned primarily with pre-Hispanic objects, including ancient pottery and tomb artifacts, as well as colonial painting and Huichol culture. Also on hand are an important pre-Hispanic bas-relief found near Mexcaltitán, and one stupendous stuffed crocodile.

Palacio de Gobierno
South of the Plaza Principal is the Palacio de Gobierno. Look inside to see some impressive and colorful murals. Painted by José Luis Soto and finished in 1999, they present a contemporary imagining of the history of Mexico. Soto’s frenetic, surreal vision of hell and conflict beneath the cupola is chilling.

Emiliano Comida y Vino
Tepic’s cuisine scene gets a lift from this chic restaurant and its intimate bar. Staff have a nice way of pulling a cork, and the restaurant stocks a selection of the finest wines produced in Mexico. Still, the best reason to show up is the menu, which features artfully crafted dishes from around the country.

Casa Museo Juan Escutia
The Casa Museo Juan Escutia was the home of Juan Escutia, one of Mexico’s illustrious niños héroes (child heroes). He died in 1847 at age 17 defending Mexico City’s Castillo de Chapultepec from US forces. It’s simply furnished and is evocative of early 19th-century Mexico.

Cafetería y Restaurant Diligencias
There’s no better place than this to sit around for hours on end nursing a cup of coffee, nibbling on a buttery biscuit and poring over a travel guide. Groups of men congregate all day in this vintage dining hall, chatting and ordering snacks and eventually the comida corrida (M$70).

Café Juventus
A youthful crowd meets here for light meals, drinks and perhaps a game of pool. The street level is set up in an intimate café style; upstairs the vibe is more that of a nightclub.
