About Tlalpujahua

Tlalpujahua is a metropolis and municipality positioned within the a ways northeast of the country of Michoacan in central Mexico. It is a former mining town, home of the Dos Estrellas Mine, which turned into the main producer of gold within the early twentieth century. A main landslide of mud and mining particles broken this mine and buried about one-third of the metropolis in 1937. Mining continued till 1959, but nationalization of the mine via President Cardenas inside the 1930's caused the death of the mine and impoverishment of the metropolis. In the Nineteen Sixties, a local by the call of Joaquin Munoz Orta started out making Christmas tree embellishes right here.

This subsequently grew into what's now one among the largest producers of ornaments known as Adornos Navidenos SA de CV. In addition to this and some other factory, there are about one hundred fifty small workshops committed to creating Christmas items, with approximately 70% of the city’s economic system based totally on it. In 2005, the city, with its slim stone streets and adobe/stone homes with crimson tile roofs, turned into made a Pueblo Magico as a part of its efforts to attract tourism.
