Santiago Tuxtla, Administrative division in Veracruz, Mexico

Santiago Tuxtla spans across 621.8 square kilometers of land in southeastern Veracruz, encompassing 239 localities at an average elevation of 300 meters above sea level.

The Spanish colonization in 1525 marked the establishment of Santiago Tuxtla as a municipality, receiving an official coat of arms representing local history and cultural fusion.

The municipality celebrates its annual fair from July 19 to 27, featuring traditional Jarocho dance competitions and the coronation of a festival queen.

The region maintains temperatures between 24 and 26 degrees Celsius throughout the year, supporting agricultural production of corn, coffee, and oranges.

The Silent Procession, commemorating the cholera epidemic of 1833, traverses the main streets during Holy Thursday and Good Friday each year.
