Chihuahua (Province) Hotels and Accommodation

The capital of Chihuahua is the city of Chihuahua. Here, in the Palacio Federal, you can see the dungeon in which Revolutionary hero Father Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla was held by the Spanish for 98 days before he was executed. It certainly wasn’t as comfortable as your room in a discount hotel in Chihuahua. A bronze plaque on the cell wall commemorates this martyr to Mexican independence. The Museo de la Revolucion is actually in Pancho Villa’s house. On display are some of his clothes and guns, and the car in which he was assassinated in 1923. You can still see the bullet holes. Be sure to see the Palacio del Gobierno, a magnificent building that dates back to 1890. Murals here tell the story of the community. One shows Benito Juarez flanked by Abraham Lincoln and Simon Bolivar.
