Teocaltiche, Colonial municipality in Los Altos de Jalisco, Mexico.
Teocaltiche extends across 933 square kilometers of highlands at an elevation of 1773 meters in northeastern Jalisco state, Mexico.
The territory, established in 1187, underwent Spanish conquest in 1530 when Cristóbal de Oñate and Manuel de Ibarra arrived under Nuño de Guzmán's orders.
The Hospital de los Indios, constructed in 1546, stands as the earliest remaining structure in Teocaltiche, marking the beginning of colonial architecture.
Local agriculture focuses on cultivating onions, corn, oats, beans, and alfalfa, while artisans produce traditional woven serapes and chess sets.
The municipality carries the nickname 'Chapulin,' representing the grasshopper symbol that identifies the local community of 36,980 residents.
