Oaxaca
Mezcal, mole and Zapotec markets in Mexico's most beloved colonial city.
Kaydet
Genel bakış
Oaxaca is the Mexico that travellers fall for: a green-stone colonial centre, a Zapotec and Mixtec cultural heartland, the markets of 20 de Noviembre and Benito Juarez, seven moles, the mezcal villages of the valley, Monte Alban's mountaintop ruins and a Day of the Dead that is the most moving in the country. It is smaller, slower and cheaper than Mexico City, and the Pacific coast (Puerto Escondido, Mazunte) is a mountain road or a short flight away.
Neden ziyaret edilmeli
For the deepest indigenous culture and the best food in Mexico, in a walkable city with spring weather and a modest price tag.

Mild and dry most of the year at 1,550 m: highs of 26 to 32°C with the hottest, driest months in April and May, a rainy season from June to September with afternoon storms, cool mornings in December and January (around 8°C). No WMO station data is held for Oaxaca, so monthly figures are shown as unavailable.
En iyi zaman: October to March; late October for Day of the Dead; July for the Guelaguetza.
Bu destinasyon için WMO iklim normali bulunmuyor (No WMO WWIS station for Oaxaca; monthly climate figures are unavailable rather than borrowed); yukarıdaki ay etiketleri editoryeldir ve hava durumu notları kalıbı ödünç alınan sayılar yerine sözcüklerle açıklar.
Nerede kalınır
Centro for the plazas and churches, Jalatlaco for cobbled calm and cafes, Xochimilco (the barrio, not the canals) for a quieter local feel, Reforma for value, and the villages (Teotitlan del Valle, San Agustin Etla) for weeks in the valley.
Mahalleler
Centro (plazas, markets), Jalatlaco (cobbles, cafes, murals), Xochimilco (aqueduct, quiet), Reforma (value, local), San Felipe del Agua (hills, affluent), the valley villages.
Yiyecek
Mole negro and the other six, tlayudas, memelas, chapulines (grasshoppers), quesillo, tamales oaxaquenos, hot chocolate with pan de yema, mezcal from palenques in Santiago Matatlan, the Mercado 20 de Noviembre's smoke hall, and the restaurant scene (Casa Oaxaca, Criollo, Levadura de Olla).
Ulaşım
Walkable centre; colectivos (shared taxis) and buses to the valley villages; ADO buses to Mexico City (6 to 7 hours) and the coast (10 hours by the old road, 3 by the new highway when open); flights to Puerto Escondido in 30 minutes.
Yapılacak şeyler
Seyahat tarzına göre
Tek bir destinasyon veritabanı, yedi farklı görünüm. Uyum, beş üzerinden editoryal bir puandır.
Cheap, safe and sociable hostels, markets for every meal, Monte Alban by colectivo and the coast beyond.
Spanish schools with homestays, volunteering in the villages and a cultural education in mole and mezcal.
US time zones, a strong long-stay community, cafes with fibre and a city that is easy to love; smaller coworking scene than the capital.
The classic stop between Mexico City and Chiapas or the coast on the way south.
Mild climate, low costs, culture and a large expat and retiree community; healthcare is adequate locally and excellent in Mexico City.
Kariyer molası veren gezginler
Spanish immersion, cooking classes in mole, weaving and natural dye workshops, mezcal study.
Walkable, gentle, beautiful and safe, with good hotels from $50 and the valley by driver; a favourite of older travellers for decades.
Pratik
Güvenlik
Oaxaca city is among Mexico's safest; teachers' protests and road blockades can disrupt travel (often around May and June); the mountain road to the coast has had robberies at night (travel by day or fly).
Yaygın dolandırıcılıklar
Few; mezcal sold as 'artisanal' at tourist prices, and inflated Day of the Dead tour packages.
Bağlantı ve uzaktan çalışma
Fibre in most central apartments and cafes (50 to 150 Mbps); coworking at Convivio, Selina and a few cafes; 4G is reliable in the city, weaker in the valley.
A calmer nomad base than Mexico City with the same time zones, good cafe fibre and a strong community of long-stayers, artists and Spanish learners; the valley and the coast are the weekends.

Dil
Spanish, with Zapotec and Mixtec in the villages; English in tourism, otherwise limited: one of Mexico's best Spanish-school cities.
Kültürel görgü kuralları
Ask before photographing people in markets and villages, buy crafts from makers, respect Day of the Dead as a family rite, and dress modestly in churches.
Sigorta ve sağlık
Decent private clinics; serious cases go to Mexico City or Puebla; insurance recommended.
