An interesting experience for Rvers, is a spot called \"The Magic Zone\" at kilometer six highway #16 (From Comala, 10 minutes, taking Suchitlan highway). If you place your RV in neutral, on the slope, the highway's optical illusion gives you the impression that your vehicle is being pulled up the hill as by magnetism.
