Leon, Guanajuato is known for beautiful architecture, captivating world heritage sites, and as the leather capital of the world. Leather in Leon dates to the early 16th century when residents would distribute and ship leather using the El Camino Real de Tierra Adentro trade route between Mexico City and the Northern frontier. Fast forward to today, the Maquilarios continue the traditional craft with knowledge passed down over the generations to produce exquisite leather goods.
