Querétaro is a landlocked state in central Mexico, known for the baroque Historic Monuments Zone of its capital, Santiago de Querétaro, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1996. Beyond the capital, the state holds the Sierra Gorda Biosphere Reserve, the Franciscan missions of Jalpan de Serra, the Pueblo Mágico of Tequisquiapan, and the towering monolith of Peña de Bernal. Querétaro is also Mexico's second-largest wine-producing region, with vineyards and cheese producers strung along the Ruta del Vino y Queso.
