Book a cooking class & learn how to make authentic Oaxacan mole!

Mezcal is a distilled smoky spirit that represents the heart and soul of Oaxaca. Oaxaca is considered the "Capital of Mezcal" and is home to about 70% of all mezcal production in the country. Check out this mezcaleria to sample different mezcals & learn about the distilling process of Oaxaca's famous alcohol.

Wander around the markets at the main square for clothes, bags, trinkets, hand carved wooden kitchen utensils, art, and so much more

A beautiful 16th-century Baroque Catholic church in the center of the city. The botanical garden where our reception is being held, is connected to the Templo de Santo Domingo church. The whole city centers around this beautiful church. Entrance to the church is free. Then spend some time walking around the cobblestone streets & admiring the street art.

An amazing street food market to grab authentic cheap eats & wander around. This is where "Smoke Alley" is, showcased on Anthony Bourdain's show. Be prepared for your clothes to smell like grilled meats.

Take a day trip to hike in nature and see the calcified mineral waterfalls! Just a couple of hours outside the city, you can join a half day tour that usually includes a visit to another local site as well.

Monte Alban is 1 of the earliest cities in Mesoamerica & is believed to have been 1 of the major cultural centers of the Zapotecs. Come see the beautiful ruins, surrounded by mountains.

Great rooftop restaurant with whimsical Oaxacan cuisine. The three men at the helm, Jason Cox, Joseph Gilbert and Julio Aguilera, are American imports, lured to southern Mexico initially by mezcal, then fully converted by the food. Joseph, who runs the bar program and Julio, the head chef, met in the kitchen of Saison in San Francisco.

One of our favorites! This is the restaurant that is catering our wedding reception. Try the duck mole, made to order salsa & a mezcal margarita on the rooftop patio over looking the Santo Domingo.
