Hotels in Oaxaca - Prices and Reviews

Mitla is a quaint town with a taste of the historical ruins of the Oaxaca area. We walked thru ruins with still remaining intricate detail and former living areas.

This was one of the most interesting and fun trips we encountered. We hitched a ride in the back of a small truck...a common mode of transportation to this destination...to the top of the peak. We wound and twisted along narrow roadways, most barely wide enough for two vehicles. Due to years and years of mineral deposits in the water source, thi...

Rode on through Oaxaco to Milta, another pyramid site, but not to look around , smaller towns are nicer and easier to find a room all be there less choice.

In Tule, there is the widest tree trunk in the world...magnificient. In Teotitlán del Valle, a village with a carpet making tradition, we were present...

It is home to, as is implied, markets, but also to ruins and, on this day, a circus, and it is the gateway to one of the most amazing places I have seen so far in Mexico - Hierve el Agua. The markets of Mitla provide a few more cultural wares and 100% less raw ...

Quit asking me to talk about it being my last day here. I don't want to think about it. Today I went to El Tule, where they boast hosting the world's largest tree. It isn't a tall tree but it does have a mighty circumference. The tree is over 2,000 years old. Wrap your minds around that one. Most of my time was spent figuring out how to get to E...
