Typical Corners of Oaxaca

Oaxaca is one of those few cities in the world which offers visitors pleasant weather throughout the year. It also offers a great culinary culture, art, folklore, tradition and fun. In the city of Oaxaca the annual average temperature is 22 º C. Wonderful! The food of Oaxaca is famous because it offers a great variety of dishes, like green coloradito, stews and Chichilo and Oaxacan tamales. A delight! Another wonder is Oaxacan chocolate liquor, which was originally sacred and you mix it with sugar and milk and drink it warm. A treat in the colonial times. Oaxaca is full of magic and charm. The people are good, simple and very friendly.
