Have you guys ever visited a volcano? No? Well if you ever
travel to Mexico and desire to visit one, go to Michoacán and visit the
youngest volcano, El Paricutin. The
volcano Paricutin is one of the youngest volcanoes is Mexico,and is located in Angahuan
Michoacán, near Uruapan Michoacán. Most
people don’t know the town where is located but if you tell them the name of
the volcano, they will guide you immediately because everyone there knows where
it’s at. Luckily enough, I got the chance to visit this volcano once and it was
the best experience ever. At first I thought it was going to explode again because
as you travel up and get where the whole is at, you’re allowed to go in, you
can feel its warmth still. It was such a beautiful view from up there, you
would have to experience it yourself to understand what I’m talking about. As I
was claiming up there I would remember all the stores my grandpa used to tell
my cousins and I, how the first time the volcano erupted a whole bunch of rocks
were flying everywhere. He recalled that he was scared because he would see the
rocks landing everywhere and destroying homes. As you get to the place where
the volcano is you see stands of people selling handmade food, which is delicious.
There are also horses that you can rent and they’ll take you for a tour so you
can see everything there is there. As I was recalling the stories my
grandfather told me, he mention that there used to be a small town there near
the volcano, but once the volcano erupted the town that was there was complete
covered with rocks and everyone went their different ways and that’s how all
the little towns formed. Like every small town in Mexico there was a church
made of rocks like the old churches used to be made.
