Free Walking Tour of Oaxaca
Description
We'll kick off our Oaxaca free tour at the Zócalo central square, right in front of the Hotel Marqués del Valle, where we'll gather at the designated time.
Our first stop will be the impressive Metropolitan Cathedral of Our Lady of the Assumption, a colonial-era masterpiece. Then, we'll head to the iconic Santo Domingo Church, which has a fascinating history as a military warehouse and stable that we'll unveil during the visit.
Continuing our route, we'll pass by the Macedonio Alcalá Theater and the Benito Juárez House-Museum, where we'll delve into the life of this prominent figure. Our next destination will be the historic San Pablo Convent, another remarkable colonial monument in Oaxaca.
Next, we'll approach the Pre-Hispanic Art Market of Mexico, where we'll provide insights into its noteworthy permanent collection, offering the opportunity for interested participants to visit it later on their own.
Afterward, we'll immerse ourselves in the bustling Sanchez Pascuas Market, a popular marketplace showcasing a wide array of products from various regions of Mexico, including diverse food and raw materials.
Our journey will conclude near the old City Hall, marking the end of our two-hour Oaxaca free tour, leaving you with a deeper understanding of the city's rich cultural heritage.
