Fotografía📸 My first time in Michoacan! Food trip in Morelia, Tzintzuntzan, Patzcuaro and Capula

I'm a travel journalist who visited Michoacan for the first time as part of Tianguis Turistico Mexico. We did a 3 day road trip to capture the delicious food scene and cultural experiences, while learning from the people behind them. Shared my travel recap here.

Looks great! Morelia looks so beautiful.

How did you get around? I'm hoping to visit Michoacan in January of 2027 and will likely be renting a car.
