Oaxaca has one of the richest and most interesting history in all of Mexico. With sixteen different ethnic languages and groups. Its valleys contain around 4, 000 archeological sites. Many of these sites which are open to the public are located less than an hours travel from the center of the city and very accessible. Many of these archeological sites are not included in the cities tours. The city and state of Oaxaca is also home to many temples of the Dominican order all of which were built in the XVI and XVII centuries, constructed, decorated and painted by indigenous hands. All of these temples have suffered major destruction, repair and reconstruction through the centuries due to the multiple earthquakes that affect the area. They are home to some of the most spectacular and breath taking display of the baroque style of Mexico from the Colonization era.
We will meet in front of Temple Santo Domingo de Guzman. We will walk or drive across the city to Jalatlaco where we will stop for coffee and a quick breakfast and contemplate the beautiful murals and ancient neighborhood. Next we will take a local transportation to Dainzu Archeological Site, home to some fifty carved stone slabs. Dainzu is not included in the local tours. We will learn of the importance of the site and its location and be mesmerized by the fantastic views. Then we will travel to Tlacolula de Matamoros. Here we will visit its impressive Tlemplo de Santa Maria de la Asuncion, view its magnificent retablos and its XVIII century organ. Then we will walk to the market have some Pulque and visit its Pasillo de Humo and delight ourselves with all kinds of meats and vegetables grilled to perfection and your hearts delight. After we will return to the center of Oaxaca where we will end our tour.
