This time around, we'll show you images of places that been on Agua Caliente boulevard for years now. You'll be surprised to see how some places used to look, like the giant Mexican hat restaurant, "El Potrero", the Agua Caliente Casino and the renowned Carnitas Uruapan restaurant, a favorite of locals for decades until it was recently demolished.
Some monuments or places have changed their façade along the years. For example, the Torre Agua Caliente was located close to "El Potrero" restaurant, the restaurant is still there but the tower has been moved closer to Downtown.
