The objective of this work is to present the conformation of the tourist space in the State of Michoacán, Mexico, based on the analysis of Don Vasco's route. A tourist route whose design, planning and management seeks to promote cultural tourism through the value of the cultural and natural heritage existing in two of the ten geographical regions that characterize the entity: Lake region and Purhepecha plateau region. The research consists of two sections: the first outlines the natural, historical and socio-cultural base that supports the growth of tourism in the study area; the second, through the application of the model of spatial articulation, as main methodological resource, identifies the elements around which is built the tourist space: resources and tourist services, spatial articulation channels of tourists, as well as flows that these originate from national areas and abroad.
