Saltillo is the capital city of Coahuila, Mexico. As of 2003, Saltillo had an estimated population of 591,000 people, rising to 637,000 if the full Metropolitan Area is considered, making it the 20th biggest metro area in the country. The metro area is composed of Saltillo, Ramos Arizpe, and Arteaga.

Saltillo is located at 25°42`N 101°00`W. El Cerro del Pueblo overlooks the city. The city stands elevated at 1600 meters, making it cooler and windier than its nearby city, Monterrey. Saltillo lies near the city of Arteaga and near Chihuahan Desert.

Alameda Zaragoza is the largest park in the city and has an artificial lake with the shape of the Mexican Republic.

Relevant buildings in Saltillo are the Cathedral, the Palacio de Gobierno (state government building), the Ateneo Fuente and the Instituto Tecnologico de Saltillo. The large Cathedral is the most remarkable example of colonial religious architecture in Northeastern Mexico; its facade is mainly Spanish baroque, with less exhuberant areas. The city has several renowned museums such as the Museo de las Aves de Mexico (Bird Museum), featuring a collection of bird specimens from all over Mexico in realistic displays, and the Museo del Desierto (Desert Museum). This last museum focuses on the geography, geology, paleonthology (with dinosaur fossils) and biodiversity of the Chihuahuan desert, and the history and culture of the local people through time. It includes a cactus greenhouse and exhibits, with dozens of species. Several international hotels, shopping centers and chain stores (HEB, Walmart, Home Depot) serve the metro area.
