Since the foundation of the New Kingdom of Galicia, the Mexican state of Jalisco has established itself as a main hub in the national economy and as the business centre of the western portion of the country. Although its economic force is mainly concentrated in the capital, Guadalajara, the rest of the state enjoys a growing prosperity in diverse economic areas.[ Forest products are obtained along the coast, and mining for silver, gold, mercury, copper, and precious stones is an important activity. The beverage tequila, distilled from the juice of the agave cactus, is named for the town of that name in Jalisco and is one of the state s best-known products. Since the state is home of two UNESCO World Heritage Sites tourism is an important economic engine. In 2006 20 millions of national and international tourists visited the state, contributing to an economic revenue of 25 billion pesos, 11% higher than in 2005.
