Oaxaca is a city with a deep history, where colonial architecture, Indian traditions and a lively cultural pulse intertwine. The streets of the center keep the memory of centuries: the aromas of local cuisine walk in squares and monasteries, and bright markets and craft shops create a unique atmosphere that you want to explore step by step.
Man-made sights of the city amaze with the richness of forms and history. In the heart of Oaxaca stands the church of Santo Domingo de Guzman, a former monastery with massive architecture and a museum; nearby is the church of San Felipe Neri, where President Benito Juarez was married in 1843. Historic chapels, churches in Tlacochahuaia and Tlaccolula, as well as well-kept city parks - Juarez Park (El Llano) and Comunal Park - form the core of what to see in the city for history and architecture lovers.
The natural attractions around Oaxaca are no less impressive: the Lagunas de Chacahua National Park offers mangrove lagoons and bird watching, the Manialtepec Lagoon and the Ventanilla Lagoon showcase bioluminescent and coastal ecosystems, and the Punta Comet Observation Site offers panoramas of the sea and coast. Huatulco and Estacahuete bays with coral reefs, beaches and mountain slopes create a variety of natural routes for walking and photo shoots.
On our site, all these places are collected in a single interactive map: you can look at the location of temples, parks, lagoons and bays on the map, read a brief information about each point and build a convenient route to the attractions of interest. Schedule a sequence of visits, mark points on the map and save the route for walking around the city and surroundings.
You can explore Oaxaca both independently, following the compiled route and enjoying leisurely walks, and with professional guides. It is convenient to book excursions and find local guides based on descriptions and reviews: excursions will help to better understand the history, rituals and natural features of the region, and guides will reveal secrets that are not always visible at first sight.
We invite you to go on a trip to Oaxaca: discover temples and museums, stroll through lagoons and coves, try local cuisine and feel the lively culture. Let each walk around the city be a small discovery - plan routes, choose places and come to see Oaxaca with your own eyes.
