The "Camino Real de Tierra Adentro", also known as the Silver Route, consists of 55 sites and five existing World Heritage sites and includes historic cities, towns, bridges, haciendas and other monuments along the 1,400km route between the Historic Center of Mexico City and the town of Valle de Allende, Chihuahua. I have four of the five existing World Heritage sites and only two of the other 55.
