WHY Oaxaca IS AWESOME
  • Monte Alban

    Once a ceremonial capital, Monte Alban is one of the largest archeological sites in the region. Visited by many, the site represents one of the earliest cities of Mesoamerica. Tour the main plaza, check out the altar, and see the “stones of the dancers.”

  • Mercado Benito Juarez

    This is a market that truly has it all, not to mention, one that has become something of a gathering place for locals and travelers alike. From produce to arts and crafts, the Mercado gives you a real sense of the city.

  • Museums

    Oaxaca is certainly proud of its historic past—and has the museums to show for it. Visit the Museum of Cultures and see numerous ancient artifacts. On the other end of the spectrum, you might also stop by Museo de los Pintores Oaxaqueños which houses the graphic works of up and coming local artists.
