Oaxaca

Some of the popular attractions to visit in Oaxaca include Monte Alban, Hierve el Agua, Teotitlan del Valle, and the Oaxaca Ethnobotanical Garden.

The best time of year to visit Oaxaca is in the fall and winter, from September to January. The weather is cooler and there are several cultural events happening during this time, such as the Day of the Dead celebrations in November.

Oaxacan cuisine is known for its rich flavors and diverse ingredients, such as mole sauce, chapulines (grasshoppers), and tlayudas (large tortillas topped with beans, cheese, meat, and vegetables).

Some good day trips from Oaxaca include visiting the petrified waterfalls of Hierve el Agua, the Zapotec ruins at Monte Alban, and the weaving village of Teotitlan del Valle.

Oaxaca is generally a safe city for tourists. However, like any city, it is important to take precautions and be aware of your surroundings, especially at night or in areas that are less populated.
