Irapuato sits in the Bajío, the fertile agricultural basin of central Mexico, in Guanajuato state. The centre is colonial in layout around its main square and churches, with industrial and residential development spreading across the surrounding flat farmland.
The city is nationally associated with strawberries, grown across the surrounding plain and sold everywhere in season. The colonial centre with its churches and arcaded square is pleasant for a short visit, and the far better-known colonial cities of Guanajuato and San Miguel de Allende are close by.
The centre is walkable and buses and taxis cover the rest of the city. The Bajío's road network is good and makes the surrounding colonial towns easy day trips.
The highland climate is mild year-round, with a summer rainy season of afternoon storms and a dry, sunny winter with cold nights. Spring is warm and dry and generally the most pleasant.
Mexico uses the MXN, calling code +52.
Mexico uses the peso, and Spanish is the language with limited English outside the tourist towns nearby. Greetings and courtesies precede business, and cards are accepted in the city though markets prefer cash.
