The heart of the city: a shaded, tree-lined square surrounded by cafes, marimba players and the 18th-century Cathedral of Our Lady of the Assumption. It is where Oaxaquenos gather from late afternoon onwards, and an essential place to sit, eat a marquesita, and watch the city go by at least once during your stay.
