Oaxaca's Absolute Essentials
Oaxaca’s cultural landscape centers on the Zapotec ruins of Monte Albán and the intricate geometric mosaics of Mitla. In the state capital, the 16th-century colonial grid includes the Baroque Church of Santo Domingo de Guzmán and the adjacent Ethnobotanical Garden, which showcases native flora. Daily life revolves around the Zócalo and the smoke-filled aisles of Mercado 20 de Noviembre, known for traditional Oaxacan cuisine. Beyond the city, the petrified waterfalls and mineral pools of Hierve el Agua offer unique natural travertine formations.
