Historic centre of Aguascalientes, Historical district in Aguascalientes, Mexico.

The historic centre of Aguascalientes is an old town district with colonial buildings, traditional markets, and public squares, with the Cathedral of Aguascalientes as its focal point. The built area spreads across several blocks with different architectural styles standing side by side.

The historic centre was declared a national heritage zone by President Carlos Salinas de Gortari on 14 November 1990, with the decree published in the Diario Oficial de la Federación on 19 December 1990. The protected area covers 0.47 square kilometres across thirty blocks and about 116 buildings from the 16th to 19th centuries.

The district displays architectural elements from the late 19th and early 20th centuries with neoclassical facades and baroque decorations. Locals use the squares and streets as natural gathering points for daily activities and traditional markets.

The district is accessible by regular bus services and visitors can explore it on foot, with guided tours connecting major landmarks and local restaurants. Comfortable shoes are recommended since the old town consists of pedestrian zones with cobblestone streets.

The district is part of the El Camino Real de Tierra Adentro, an ancient trade route recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site in 2010. This recognition honors the place's role in connecting different regions across centuries.
