Uruapan Travel Guide
Mexico
Uruapan is a city of 237,308 people in Mexico. It sits inland in the country’s central region and uses Mexico City time, making it a useful base for exploring the surrounding area rather than a coastal holiday destination.
Travellers arriving by air use Licenciado y General Ignacio Lopez Rayon Airport (UPN). There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres of Uruapan, so beach trips require travelling farther afield.
