Guanajuato is the main colonial city of Mexico. It is called Capital Cervantina of America and it is where the Festival Internacional Cervantino takes place.
The most important event in this city was in September 16th, 1810 in the small village "Los Altos" now Dolores, where the priest Miguel Hidalgo stared the independence war of Mexico with the famous phrase "Grito de Dolores".
Other place that you can visit is El Cerro del Cubilete in Silao; the main attraction is the huge Cristo Redentor revered by thousand of people of all the country; that Cristo is similar as El Corcovado in Rio of Janeiro in Brazil.
