As we were walking the streets of San Miguel de Allende, I was quite fascinated by the doorway of the colonial town.
We noticed that many doorways had garlands or some type of decoration around them. Alejandro asked one of the storekeepers if they were for some local "fiesta", and she said "No". The owners of many of the shops and restaurants simply agreed to decorate the doors.
I was also struck by the beauty of the intricate carvings on many of the old wooden doors.
