About Ixtlán del Río
Ixtlán del Río is a town in southern Nayarit and the seat of the municipality of the same name, on the road between Guadalajara and Tepic. Its main draw is the archaeological site of Los Toriles, just outside town, known for a circular temple. The center is an easy place to pause, walk the plaza and eat before continuing through the region.
