Autlán de Navarro

Autlán de Navarro extends across 705 square kilometers of terrain at an elevation of 1,003 meters in the Sierra Madre Occidental foothills.

The municipality developed as a strategic colonial trading post connecting the Pacific port of La Barra de Navidad with Guadalajara through established commercial routes.

The Feria de la Candelaria festival incorporates traditional mariachi performances, regional food exhibitions, and celebrations of the local agricultural heritage.

The municipality maintains direct bus connections to Guadalajara, located 192 kilometers northeast, and to Manzanillo, situated 165 kilometers to the southeast.

The name originates from Nahuatl words Aotli and Tlan, forming a compound that references the location near water channels in the region.
