The state of Sonora is located in northwest Mexico, bordered by Chihuahua, Sinaloa, Arizona to the north and the Sea of Cortez to the west. The landscape includes beaches, lush valleys, majestic mountains and arid deserts, all part of the Sierra Madre Occidental.

INDIGENOUS LAND

The land is inhabited by numerous indigenous groups, including the Yaquis, Mayos, Primas, Pápagos, Opatos, Seris and Guarijíos, who still preserve their ancestors' folkloric customs and traditions found throughout the state.
