Monterrey

Monterrey, the state capital of Nuevo León in northeastern Mexico, is a massive commercial and industrial hub surrounded by mountains. Above it stands the historic Palacio del Obispado, a Baroque mansion that now houses a museum dedicated to the area. You may find the impressive Museo de Arte Contemporáneo and the green laser-projecting Faro de Comercio tower at the Macroplaza, a large green area of interconnected squares in the heart of the city.
