Ciudad Victoria is the capital city of Tamaulipas state. It has about a quarter million inhabitants, but in the city center where I was staying, it felt very much like a small town. There's a pleasant little park with a gazebo where bands play, and you can sit among the tmanicured hedges and watch the world go by. There aren't a lot of fascinating tourist attractions to see, but it was a nice place to relax for an evening in between Monterrey and Tampico.

I don't think they see a lot of American tourists in this city, because as I walked down the street I was greeted with much honking of horns and shouts of "guero" (Blondie).
