Introducing Parras
A graceful oasis town located in the heart of the Coahuilan desert some 160km west of Saltillo, Parras is the kind of place that puts a smile on your face. It has a historic center of real colonial character and a delightfully temperate climate, but it’s most famous for its wine, and even some no-frills restaurants serve it. Underground streams from the sierra surface here as springs, which have been used to irrigate the parras (grapevines) since the late 16th century. Parras is also an important manufacturer of mezclilla (denim), which is why jeans are sold in all sorts of strange places like hotels and candy stores.
