Beto Ramon’s Health Castle
Xilitla is by excellence the preferred destination of tourists who travel to the Potosinan Huasteca; whimsical formations originating from dreams and built in the middle of the jungle, next to the crystalline stream of “La Conchita.” With its waterfalls and wells, they are a place that you must not miss.
