Hermosillo, Capital city in Sonora, Mexico

Hermosillo extends across a flat desert landscape at 27 meters elevation, surrounded by mountains and characterized by its grid-pattern streets and modern architecture.

The city originated as a Spanish settlement in 1700, evolving from Villa del Pitic into the capital of Sonora with significant growth during industrial development.

The Catedral Metropolitana de Hermosillo stands as the central religious monument, while the Plaza Zaragoza hosts regular community gatherings and traditional celebrations.

The General Ignacio Pesqueira García International Airport connects Hermosillo with direct flights to Mexico City, operating multiple services throughout the day.

The local cuisine features Sonoran-style hot dogs, prepared with bacon-wrapped sausages and served with regional toppings at street stands throughout the city.
