Ihuatzio is a small, traditionally Purhepecha indigenous town on the shores of Lake Patzcuaro in Michoacan, Mexico. The town is known for its archaeological site with 1,000-year-old ruins that were occupied by two different pre-Hispanic indigenous cultures. Ihuatzio is situated 7 km west of La Ciénega.

Tzintzuntzán is a town of 3,500 people on Lake Patzcuaro in the state of Michoacan, but the town is of little touristic value. The real magnet for foreign travelers is the Tzintzuntzan Archaeological Zone, which are the ruins of the once powerful capital of the Purhepecha people.
