Arrived in Chihuahua yesterday and looks like a nice city. I had a look around the Cathedral yesterday and Plazas de Armas which is a cute little plaza with some stall holders and shoe shiners. Went to the Museo de la Revolucion Mexicana (Quinta Luz) which was the home of General Francisco Villa who was head of the Division del Norte armed forces and led a rebellion in Mexico. In 1922 he was shot in Hidalgo del Parral. On his death several of his wifes tried to lay claim to his estate where it was won by his wife Dona Luz Corral de Villa who lived there until her death in 1981. The house is beautiful with many murals on the walls and items of clothing and armery from Villa.
