Nestled within the lush, mountain region of the Sierra Madres exists one of Mexico's most tranquil, magical hideaways. A mere 70-minute drive from Puerto Vallarta, but it takes the traveller four centuries back in time, deep into Mexico's colourful colonial past. Nestled in the folds of mist-wreathed mountains, the former gold and silver mining town is a living museum of the 16th-century invasion of Mexico by the Spanish conquistadors who uprooted an ancient Indian civilization. It's a simple enough matter to hire a guide and a mule in this town and go riding off in search of buried treasure in the caves of the Sierra Madre mountains - but you had better beware of The Curse of the Sunken Mine. http://vallarta-info.com/sansebasti.html
