The preceding entrance door opens into a white walled zaguán. A native flagstone floor is subdivided by herringbone brick panels. Past an old bench of wide mes-quite boards below a processional lantern, the calm wrought iron cancela from a former Oaxaca home gives access to the open patio on following page.

Because of the great number of ranas which lived on the surrounding slopes, the original Tarascan name for Guanajuato was Guanaxhuato, mening “Hill of Frogs”. Beyond the arched opening a covered terrace provides commanding views of these hills, with old mine buildings in the background. The patio with its rough masonry and off-white stuccoed walls is ideal for protected sunning.
