General Terán

General Terán is a small locality in Nuevo León situated in northeastern Mexico across flat terrain with agricultural land and residential areas. The town has basic shops and services including pharmacies, banks, and building supply stores that serve everyday community needs.

The locality was named in honor of General Manuel Mier y Terán, a significant military and political figure in Mexican history. It later became the site where President Plutarco Elías Calles established the Institutional Revolutionary Party.

The central plaza serves as the heart of daily life, where locals gather for market days and community events throughout the week.

The locality is easy to navigate on foot and has a manageable size that makes exploring without a car feasible. Most shops and services are located near the town center and are within walking distance.

A centuries-old sabino tree grows at the center of Recreativo Sabino Scoop alongside a natural spring that flows year-round. This location is just a short distance from the town center and offers a peaceful spot for visitors.
