Directions to the Gallery

We are an easy 12-minute drive or taxi ride north of San Miguel in the beautiful countryside.

Enter “Galeria Atotonilco” into Google Maps or your GPS. It will bring you right to us.

Or follow these directions:

We are located five miles north of the glorieta at Ventana Golf Course. It takes about 12 minutes. Drive north from the glorieta. Pass the Xote/Taboada intersection. In another couple of miles, you will come to a special left turn lane. There is a big sign for Nirvana on the left. Get into that left turn lane.

Take a soft left and it will put you on a side road parallel to the highway.

Now take the first left turn.  You will see signs from now on for “Galeria Atotonilco.” Turn left where the main road turns left. Drive a half-mile on the cobblestone/paved road to #14. Turn right and follow the long, curvy driveway to the red gallery building.

We are the driveway just before Nirvana Restaurant.
