Whether you're traveling as a couple of not, the romantic atmosphere of The Alley Of The Kiss shouldn’t be lost on anyone. The site of a classically tragic tale of unrequited love and death, this narrow, terracotta-lined alley has become a mecca for lovers, where two balconies meet so closely in the alley that you can kiss across them. Be sure to research the mythic story of the alley before you visit, and if traveling as a couple, ask a passerby to take a snap of you and your lover locking lips in the fabled spot.

    Not very different than many other small alleys in Guanajuato, except for the long line of people waiting in line, and often paying money, to take a picture here. If it is your job to take a picture.....  more »

    Try and go in the day as it is quieter and you can get good photographs. At night it is a lot busier and photographs are not so good. Read about the history and significance before you go!  more »

    The place is cool but a mission to find and to tell you the truth too small and crowded to stay there no more than 5 min. It's a good place for a couple to go and take a quick pic. It's really just a narrow alley and there several like that around the city, not as narrow but close enough.
