Sonora

Known as “Mexico’s great frontier” for its ruggedly beautiful desert landscape, cattle ranches, wheat fields, and at the heart of its cuisine is carne asada

Known as “Mexico’s great frontier,” the state of Sonora borders Arizona and shares its stunning, rugged Sonoran desert landscape which meets the sparkling, bountiful Sea of Cortez to the west. This sparsely populated, wide-open northern territory is a land of cattle ranches, wheat fields, and miles of untouched beaches on the coast. Its peoples’ pride for what the land gives them is reflected in its rustic, satisfying and delicious cuisine with staples like flour tortillas, coyotas, shellfish, and at the heart of it – carne asada!
