This scenic, peaceful, and lively village was formerly a mining town in the 19th century. In 1862, the discovery of silver and gold in the southern Baja California Sur mountains drew miners to El Triunfo. Today, the village is a charming destination with lovely shops and a quaint coffee shop. The houses are colorful and enchanting. It's a spot you'd definitely want to visit while traveling the region.
