LERDO, DURANGO, MEXICO – Hi everyone! This video is Part 17 (madness!) of my 2021 Mexico Travel series, and the final-part of a four-part series in and around Comarca Lagunera in area around Torreón, Coahuila and its sister city, Gómez Palacio, Durango. In this video we are visiting the luscious Lerdo, full of trees, colourful buildings, parks, and much more.

One of the reasons to visit Lerdo is Neveria Chepo, in other words (arguably), Mexico’s best ice-cream? Chepo originates in Lerdo and can be found elsewhere in Torreón and Gómez Palacio. You can also visit the Museo Francisco Sarabia, which details the history of one of Mexico’s aviation pioneers, holder of many speed records from the 1930s. We also have some awesome comida mexicana (mexican food) which was recommended to me – Tortillones! A totally bonkers gordita type dish well-known in the area!

Next up, we’re back in Iztapalapa for the final Mexico Travel video of 2021. This is Comarca Lagunera’s AND Northern Mexico’s FINAL hurrah!

If you’re thinking about moving to Mexico or becoming one of the increasing number of expats in Mexico, your choices aren’t limited to popular areas like Guanajuato, San Miguel de Allende, Cancun or Puerto Vallarta. You might even be looking for off the beaten track Mexico. You might ask the questions, “Is Mexico Safe?” or, “Is Mexico dangerous. Durango is a state that, granted, you’ll need to be able to speak Spanish in, but the city and state has so much to offer, just as much as those other places!

  1. Hi everyone I hope you enjoyed the final video from Northern Mexico! Just a reminder that I actually left Mexico in early August (this video was filmed on August 1st), but there's one more to come from Iztapalapa! Have you had Nieves Chepo? What did you think? Remember to select captions for SUBTITLES in English, Spanish and many other languages.

    Hola a todos, espero que hayan disfrutado el video final del norte de México. Solo un recordatorio de que en realidad salí de México a principios de agosto (este video fue filmado el 1 de agosto), ¡pero hay uno más por venir de Iztapalapa! ¿Has tenido Nieves Chepo? ¿Qué te pareció? Recuerda seleccionar los subtítulos de los SUBTÍTULOS en inglés, español y muchos otros idiomas.

    Torreón – Gómez y Lerdo ciudades hermanas

  6. Mi hermano es el chico que pintó el mural en la casa de la Cultura, saludos desde Lerdo :D. La nieve Chepo es de lo mejor que hay. <3

  7. Efectivamente las nieves Chepo son las mejores , yo soy de Lerdo y he viajado a varios lados y no he probado ninguna nieve igual de rica que la de aquí.
    SALUDOS!!

  8. Hola David, gracias por reconocer a nuestra Ciudad Lerdo Durango como una de las mas bellas del norte; es una gran idea promuevas el turismo de mi ciudad ( por adopcion desde hace mas de 15 años), siendo originario de Torreon, bienvenido a esta linda Ciudad Jardin!!

  9. The area you showed in the video reminds me of San Luis Potosi, not the historic part but the neighboring parts. Nice to see videos of areas that are mostly unknown. The thing I love about Mexico is that when you think you seen it all there's plenty more experiences that are even better than the famous ones.

  10. Gracias por venir a mi pequeña ciudad Lerdo, siempre serás bienvenido, si vuelves tendrás que comer los famosos elotes de lerdo…

  11. I studied at Col. Josefa E. de Ponchaux and married a woman there. Thank you. excellent video.😬👍

  12. Yo tengo 58 años viviendo en Lerdo,Dgo y no lo cambio por nada, y la nieve de chepo es la mejor de todo México

  13. This video made me emotional , my family is from Pedro Durango and everything looks the same ! Chepo is bomb ! I hope you enjoyed elotes ! I haven’t been there in 4 years hooding to go this year !
