MEZCAL ROUTE
We recommend traveling the mezcal route to
Santiago Matatlán , 46 km from the city of Oaxaca, where 40% of the national mezcal is made.
MARKETS
Oaxaca markets are colorful places full of movement and living traditions. The markets have been the traditional meeting point since long before colonization. Almost all ethnic groups have traded their products in markets. Ask our hosts for the selection of the Hotel Tabáa Oaxaca.

Hierve el Agua is a system of petrified waterfalls formed by calcium carbonate.
The New Orchid Garden, "JardÃn Botánico de Comitán" , seeks to become in the coming months a center for the study, conservation and propagation of orchids.
SUNDAY ROUTE OF CONVENTS
In 1523 the first Dominican friars arrived in New Spain. Under the evangelizing mission as part of the process of spiritual conquest they covered the southern area, in Oaxaca, there is a group of Dominican convents that delineate a route that allows knowing the footprint of the passage of this religious order in its evangelizing mission.
ECOTOURISM ROUTE
The Sierra Juárez route goes from Capulálpam to Cuajimoloyas. This route is ideal for activities such as rappelling, swimming, zip-lining, bike rental or choosing one of the 12 climbing routes.
