Introduction

Nestled in the Sierra Madre with peaks almost 10,000 feet high, Oaxaca is a serene escape from the heat along the coast. With sidewalks cut from green volcanic rock and colonial architecture that revels some of the best in Europe, it’s no surprise this Mexican jewel was declared Humanity’s Cultural Patrimony by UNESCO. Single travelers, couples, families and small groups will find that this eternal, spring-like city offers something for everyone. Almost postcard perfect, the capital’s old world charm is showcased in the colonial architecture of its historical buildings and surrounding plazas. The warmth of the local people, with their rich folkloric traditions, whimsical music and delectable food, welcome visitors with open arms. Foreigners have been traveling to Oaxaca for many years to take pleasure in the low key, relaxed Mexican atmosphere that this charming city has to offer.
