As part of the promotion that will be carried out this week for all attendees of the Mexican Petroleum Congress (CMP) that is being held this week in Tampico, a series of tourist tours have been planned.

The intention is to make known part of the tourist wealth that the state offers to its local, national and foreign visitors, so the participants will take various tours of Tampico and Ciudad Madero, the cradle of the oil industry in Mexico, since that distant 1904, when the first producing well was discovered, reported the state Tourism Secretariat.

More than seven thousand congressmen are expected, making this event the most attended that has been held in southern Tamaulipas in recent years.
