Parral

Parral, also known as Hidalgo del Parral, is a small city in Chihuahua. The historic mining town has a colorful history, particularly during the Mexican Revolution when a local woman gained fame fighting off the U.S. Cavalry as they chased flamboyant revolutionary, Pancho Villa (who would end up being assassinated in town several years later). The town's Cavalcade attracts thousands of visitors who discover a charming town that can be a great weekend getaway destination. It is one of Mexico's designated Pueblos Mágicos.
