in addition, the tourism minister announced a new magical towns corridor in the southern part of nayarit, creating a new tourism route across jala, ixtlan del rio, ahuacatlan, compostela and amatlan de cañas. this will bring travelers to five of nayarit's magical towns and foster the opportunity for new businesses to emerge, from dining options, entertainment venues and museums to transportation services, health-care facilities and beyond. tourism encourages new developments that both visitors and residents can avail themselves of year-round.
