Chihuahua is not just a dog breed

Chihuahua is not just a dog breed, it is also a State as well as a City in Mexico.  Chihuahua, Chihuahua sounds redundantly redundant, but if you look it up on the internet, you'll find some interesting facts.

The city of Chihuahua is the capital of the state of Chihuahua.  

Bordering parts of New Mexico and Texas, the state of Chihuahua is the largest in Mexico by area, but not by population.  That's why it is known as El Estado Grande or "The Big State."

In case you aren't familiar with Mexico, there are 31 states and the Federal District.  They comprise the 32 Federal Entities of Mexico.

Chihuahua has the most forest in all of Mexico.  As a result, the majority of Chihuahua's workers are employed in mining, forestry, and industry.

Chihuahua's canyons are the biggest in North America. 

 

Flora, fauna, and photo ops are everywhere within the state.

Within the canyons are beautiful waterfalls, one of which is the highest in Mexico.  Of course, I had to (accidentally) crop them out of the postcard photos.

The city of Chihuahua is as diverse as the countryside.  From modern buildings to palaces that date back to the early 16th century, there is much to see in this city.

Thanks for taking this trip to the city and state of Chihuahua with me in my North America section of my 7 Continents altered book.

Materials used for this page include tissue paper background I painted copper, five old postcards, three from the state and two from the city of Chihuahua, and three gifted Mexican beer bottle caps used as embellishments.  This page is the reverse of the Cinco de Mayo page I showed for T(ea) this week.
