Warum Oaxaca Besuchen
The Birthplace of Mezcal: Experience the spirit in its true home. Tour a traditional palenque (distillery) in Santiago Matatlán to see the agave hearts roasted in earthen pits, and taste the nuanced differences between espadín, tobala, and other agave varieties in city tasting rooms like Mezcaloteca.
Living Indigenous Culture: Engage with traditions that predate the Spanish conquest. Witness the Guelaguetza festival in July, visit the Zapotec weaving communities in the surrounding valleys, and hear indigenous languages spoken in the markets.
Spectacular Ancient Ruins: Explore monumental archaeological sites. Stand atop the Grand Plaza of Monte Albán, a UNESCO site overlooking the valleys, and venture to the lesser-known but stunning Mitla to see its intricate geometric stone mosaics.

Must-Try Essen in Oaxaca
