Description

Uncover the charm of Oaxaca with a visit to the magnificent Temple of Santo Domingo de Guzmán, a stunning example of Dominican architecture and one of Mexico’s most breathtaking Baroque treasures. Continue your journey by walking along one of the city's most iconic streets, paved with green cantera stone. This picturesque path is part of the Andador Turístico, a vibrant pedestrian walkway stretching from Santo Domingo to the heart of the city. Along the way, explore museums, art galleries, craft shops, and charming local restaurants. As you arrive in the city center, immerse yourself in the festive atmosphere filled with live marimba and brass band music—an authentic taste of Oaxaca’s joyful spirit. To end your magical tour, dive into the colorful world of Oaxaca’s traditional markets. At Benito Juárez Market, admire and shop for local crafts like black pottery and alebrijes, and sample iconic Oaxacan products such as mole, tlayudas, mezcal, chocolate, quesillo, and even chapulines (grasshoppers!). Then, head to 20 de Noviembre Market and walk through its famous grilled meats corridor for a mouthwatering introduction to Oaxacan cuisine.
