Gourmet Tourism Encouraged

To celebrate the first anniversary of the National Tourism Accord, Tourism Minister Gloria Guevara announced the creation of 18 “Gastronomic Routes.” These will place emphasis on regional specialties served around the country, such as grilled goat in Monterrey, mole in Puebla and Oaxaca and pork roasted in banana leaves in Yucatan. As for the Tourism Accord, it calls for further training, expansion of the Pueblos Mágicos program, technical aid to small tourism-related businesses and more.
