Oaxaca
See all Oaxaca Photos
The city of Oaxaca is one of Mexico’s jewels of colonial architecture. The gorgeous city center, or Zócalo, is a haven of peace and tranquility. Tall trees cast shade on locals and visitors sitting outside at the many cafes, enjoying coffee, beer or a local specialty, such as lime-peel lemonade or the notorious smokey Oaxacan liquor, Mezcal.
The nearby ruins of Monte Albán – only about ten kilometers away – draw most visitors to Oaxaca, but it is the city itself that keeps them there and brings them back.
