Aia ma ke aloha o nā makani e pā mai ka hikina ʻākau mai no kahi hapa nui o ka makahiki, ʻo Pachuca, ke kapikala o ka mokuʻāina o Hidalgo, i kapa ʻia ka inoa kapakapa o "la Bella Airosa".
ʻO Pachuca kahi ʻāpana o kekahi o nā kikowaena minia nui loa ma Mekiko, a ʻoiai ua hoʻemi ʻia ka hana i nā makahiki he hala i hala aku nei, ua pili loa kekahi ʻōlelo o ke kūlanakauhale i ka mining. ʻO kāna mau alanui kūiki a me kona wahi maloʻo, akā ʻaʻole maikaʻi no kēlā kumu, e kuhikuhi iā mākou i nā wahi mining mua o koloneial Mexico, e like me Guanajuato, Zacatecas a i ʻole Taxco.
ʻO ka moʻolelo o Pachuca mai ka kenekulia 15, i ka manawa i hoʻokumu ʻia ai e kahi hui ʻo Mekiko i kapa ʻia ʻo Patlachiuhcan, ʻo ia hoʻi "wahi ʻikiʻī", kahi i nui ai ke gula a me ke kālā. I loko o nā makahiki mua o ka viceroyalty ua lilo ke kaona i ʻāpana i makemake nui ʻia no ka Paniolo. I ka waena o ke kenekulia 16, ua ʻike ʻo Pachuca i kahi lele mining mua, akā ua pau kēia ma muli o ka paʻakikī o ka hoʻokahe ʻana i nā subsoils. Ma ka waena o ke kenekulia 18, ua puka hou ia ma ke ʻano he kikowaena ʻoihana kalepa a me ke kaiāulu mahalo i ka manaʻo i hāʻawi ʻia i ka wahi e nā mea hiʻona a me nā mea kālepa ʻelua: Pedro Romero de Terreros, Conde de Regla, a me José Alejandro Bustamante y Bustillos.
ʻAʻohe hale o ke kūlanakauhale ʻo Pachuca kupaianaha e like me Guanajuato a i ʻole Taxco ma muli o ke kokoke loa i Mexico City, no ka mea ua ʻōlelo ʻia e makemake nā mea minia waiwai o ia wahi e noho i ke kūlanakauhale nui; akā, he kauhale hoihoi a hoʻokipa ia no ka hoʻokipa a nā kamaʻāina. ʻO ka hale kuhi ʻo Kapalakiko i kūkulu ʻia i ka hoʻomaka o ke kenekulia 17, he hale kūkulu nui ia i piha nā hana nui o nā kiʻi kolone. I kēia manawa ua noho ʻia kahi ʻāpana nui o ka pūnaewele e ka INAH Photo Library a me ka Photographic Museum. Hoʻohanohano ka luakini i nā kiʻi pena aila maikaʻi e nā mea pena kaulana o ka 18 kenekulia, a ma ka hale pule o La Luz, me kahi kuahu nani, mālama ʻia nā koena o ka Count of Regla. ʻO kekahi luakini nui kekahi ka parish o La Asunción, ka mea kahiko loa o ke kūlanakauhale, kūkulu ʻia i ka makahiki 1553 a hōʻano hou i nā manawa he nui.
ʻO kahi mamao iki mai ia wahi ka hale o nā Pahu Aliʻi, me kona ʻano pā kaua, i kūkulu ʻia i ka makahiki ʻumikūmāhiku e kūkulu i ka ʻelima o ka mōʻī, ʻo ia hoʻi ka ʻelima o nā kālā i loaʻa mai nā kālā pilikino no ka Mōʻī Sepania. ʻO ka Hale Aliʻi Aupuni, ʻo Casas Coloradas (hale kuʻikahi Franciscan i kēia lā hale ʻo ka Palace of Justice) a me ka Casa de las Artesanías - kahi e hiki ai iā ʻoe ke mahalo a loaʻa i nā hana lima like ʻole o Hidalgo - kūpono ke kipa ʻia, e like me ka Mining Museum , hoʻonoho ʻia i loko o kahi hale hanohano mai ka kenekulia 19, a me ka kia hoʻomanaʻo o Christ the King, mai ka piko o ka puʻu ʻo Santa Apolonia me he mea lā e kiaʻi a pale aku i ke kūlanakauhale a me nā kamaʻāina. Me ke kanalua ʻole kahi o nā wahi hoihoi loa i ka "la Bella Airosa" ʻo ia ka Plaza de la Independencia, ma ka puʻuwai o Pachuca, i kau ʻia e ka uaki kū kiʻekiʻe he 40 mika kiʻekiʻe i kūkulu ʻia me ka lua keʻokeʻo. ʻO kēia uaki ʻāpana ʻāpana nui he ʻehā mau helehelena a kāhiko ʻia me nā kiʻi kinikini wahine Carrara e kū ana i Independence, Liberty, ka Hoʻololi a me ke Kumukanawai. ʻLelo lākou ma ke ʻano he hale kiaʻi uaki e like me ke kiosk, akā ma hope ua hoʻoholo ʻia he uaki nui ia, e like me ke ʻano o ka hoʻomaka o ke kenekulia i hala. ʻO kāna Austrian carillon, kahi kope o ko Big Ben Lādana, i alakaʻi i nā hanana āpau i ke kūlanakauhale mai Sepatemaba 15, 1910, i ka wā i hoʻokumu ʻia ai i ka manawa o ke kenekulia mua o ke Kūʻokoʻa o Mekiko.
Hoʻopuni ʻia ʻo Pachuca e nā wahi nani, e like me Estanzuela, kahi ululāʻau nui o nā pine a me nā ʻoka, a me Real del Monte, no ka mea nui i ka mōʻaukala mining o Hidalgo i kūpono e ʻōlelo kūikawā.
