HISTORIC CENTRE OF OAXACA AND ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITE OF MONTE ALBÁN

Once the center of the Mixtec and Zapotec civilizations, Oaxaca is a combination of pre-conquest, colonial and modern influences. Some of the many sites in the city?s historical downtown include the main plaza, the government palace, the Cathedral of Oaxaca and the city market, as well as some of Mexico's most ornately decorated churches. The area?s main attraction is the archaeological site of Monte Alban, one of the most impressive burial places in the Western Hemisphere.
