Leon's commercial activities are many and varied, with emphasis on the leather and clothing industries. Skillful hands making shoes, boots, belts, jackets, and many other leather accessories can be admired any day of the week. No wonder why, this city, is considered the "country's capital of leather". A small walk around Leon's downtown will be enough to find shops and stalls where you can buy the perfect souvenir to bring back home.

At night, shortly after the big factories, shops, and businesses have closed their doors, the trendy nightclubs, restaurants and bars will immerse you in world of multicolored lights and music. The word "boring" just doesn't exist here. Put on your dancing shoes, and let Leon's downtown keep you singing and dancing until the sun comes up.
