Colima is the capital of the Mexican state of the same name. It lies near the central Pacific coast, in a valley south of Colima Volcano. Jardín Libertad, the main square, features a 19th-century Belgian kiosk and Portal Medellín, a grand building with a row of arches. Catedral Basílica Menor de Colima has a neoclassical facade. Next to the cathedral is the city hall and government building, Palacio de Gobierno.
