Cultural traditions hold
strong in Guadalajara
Guadalajara is full of surprises. A cosmopolitan metropolis modern, but
authentic and traditional at the same time. Many of things which are
typically associated with Mexico have their origins in Jalisco. These
include rodeos called charreadas, mariachis, and of course the tequila.
The charreadas consist of various events demostrating the skill of the
rider in roping, handling of his horse, lassoing, or controlling a bull or a
wild bronco. For the women there are a precision equestrian even called
the “scaramuza” with the participants dressed as “Adelitas” or women of
the revolution."
Mariachi
It has become synonymous of joy, music and party. The mariachi costume
is famous worldwide. Traditional mariachi include guitars the “vihuela”, a
high-pitched, round-backed guitar which provides rhythm, and a bass
guitar called a “guitarrón”, violins and trumpets. The mariachis use the
charro outfit, usually in black with silver-colored buttons and chains
running down their pants legs and up their vests, and with the
unmistakable large Mariachi hat.
Although there is still much controversy, it seems that this type of musical
ensembles were originated in north of the state, in the region of Los Altos
de Jalisco. Most legends put the origin of the modern mariachi in the town
of Cocula.
The word mariachi was thought to have derived from the French word
“mariage" (marriage) dating from the French Intervention in Mexico in the
1860s. The origin of the word is still in dispute but most of the prominent
theories state that it has indigenous roots.
In Guadalajara, you may see them playing in a restaurant or bar, or in the
traditional Mariachi Plaza, and of course in the famous Parian in
Tlaquepaque.
Charrería
When the Spanish first settled in colonial Mexico had very large
cattle-raising estates and soon the indigenous people known as
“vaqueros” became excellent horsemen. Smaller landholders, known as
rancheros or ranchers, were the first genuine “charros” and they are
credited as the inventors of the charreada. The charro's elaborate
costume and trappings reflect the merging of three distinct cultures that
create the Mexican cowboy: Arabian, Spanish and indigenous American.
Gentleman cowboys adorned their trousers with silver buttons down the
heavily embroidered outside seams. The short jackets and wide-brim,
cone- shaped hats were trimmed in a likewise fashion. Today it has
become a national sport a multi-colored spectacle.

Tequila
It is a distilled beverage made from blue agave plant, primarily in the area
surrounding the town of Tequila. It is the most popular and representative
beverage of Mexico in the world. The name tequila is a controlled
denomination of origin, recognized internationally.
Tequila is usually bottled in one of five categories:
Blanco ("white") also known as "silver", un-aged and bottled or stored
immediately after distillation.
Reposado ("rested"), aged a minimum of two months, but less than a year
in oak barrels. It is softer than white, has a golden color and its flavor has
a hint of oak.
Añejo ("aged" or "vintage"), aged a minimum of one year, but less than
three years in small white oak barrels. The color ranges from gold to dark
amber strong, its taste is strongly impregnated with wood. If it has been
aged for at least three years, can be considered Extra Añejo ("extra aged"
or "ultra aged").
The agave landscape and the ancient industrial facilities of Tequila have
now been inscribed on UNESCO's World Heritage List.
