Guadalajara is the capital city of the Mexican state of Jalisco, and the seat of the municipality of Guadalajara.
Its cultural wealth has taken an important role in the tourist sector; the city hosts many of the main cultural events of the country and is a main destination for people who visit Mexico. Guadalajara is the shelter of a great circle of artists and people interested in art and culture. Having the culture as key for the development of Guadalajara, the Guggenheim foundation has approved the construction of what will be the sixth Guggenheim museum in the world, which when finished in the early 2010s, will be the tallest structure in Latin America. The city will also host the 2011 Pan-American Games.
Guadalajara has recently released information about the Guggenheim Museum which is currently under construction. This and the majority of the projects that are currently under construction in Guadalajara are meant to give priority to the cultural wave that is sweeping the city and will transform Guadalajara into the new cultural icon of Latin America for years to come.
