Monterrey is vibrant, tireless and multifaceted–a city where sophistication goes hand-in-hand with folk traditions.
Its wide range of museums, parks, restaurants, bars, shopping malls and exlusive stores; its love of soccer and baseball; its exciting music and art production and its shows and nightlife make this a metropolis that never fails to fascinate.
Monterrey is also a powerful industrial city, a driving force for Mexico’s national economy and a cultural epicenter, for which it has been dubbed “La Sultana del Norte” (“The Sultaness of the North”).
