It’s the cultural Mecca of Mexico. Artists, chefs and creatives from near and far have pilgrimaged here for centuries – and you can feel it. Pops of color dress up beautiful colonial architecture next to majestic churches. Artisan stores and mercados give life to the streets. Indigenous ladies toast quesadillas to perfection on the side walk. And tiny mezcalerías are waiting to feed you their pride-and-joy, produced just down the road.
