Of course the main reason is that in 1990 Taxco, with its colonial architecture, cobblestone streets that wind narrowly up and down the hillside, and the magnificent Temple of Santa Prisca on Borda Plaza, was decreed a National Historical monument.So if you are in the historic part of Taxco or you want to build in that area of town you must build or maintain the same style of architecture of whitewashed buildings with red tiled roofs.

Making Taxco what it is today, a historic well preserved and a must see town when you visit Acapulco.For most people in Mexico and in fact around the world, as well as I remember our trip, the word silver is most associated with the hillside city of Taxco (pronounced tahs-ko).As we drove along the mountainside at 5,000 feet we came upon this wonderful interesting city, Taxco de Alarcón, as it’s officially known.
