  • Oaxaca Mexico is in our opinion the best city in Mexico for art, food, and culture lovers! We spent almost 2 months exploring Oaxaca City and its neighborhoods. This Mexico travel vlog highlights Barrio de Jalatlaco, which is only a 10 minute walk from Oaxaca Centro but feels like worlds away!
    Jalatlaco has so much charm. From it's cobblestone streets to it's small cozy cafes - you'll just have to watch to see why it's a MUST VISIT spot when you are in Oaxaca!
    Join us while we show you how to get to Jalatlaco and what to do, see and eat while you are there!

    *We realized we were told the wrong thing, so wanted to correct ourselves. The apparatus that goes on your shoulders is not for fireworks - a large puppet, called a "mojiganga" goes over it and the puppeteer parades it through the streets! That is even cooler!

      We definitely need to work on our Spanish - it is a goal of mine to become fluent. When we went to South America maybe like 6 years ago I was very good, but since I haven’t spoke it much since I lost the ability. I will learn it again now!

    I love checking out all the barrios with you both! More please - thanks! Something I noticed when we were in Jardin El Llano - the base of the Juarez statue has the same Zapotec pattern as the prehispanic buildings in Mitla. I respect how they acknowledge his indigenous roots (and I think that statue went up in 1905). Another note - that brown salsa is "salsa macha". We make our own at home here in Vancouver - although we probably pay ten times what you would in Oaxaca for the dried chilies (guajillo, arbor, etc). Look up recipes on line. It is easy and excellent - especially on pizza!

    In most Spanish speaking countries LL is pronounced Y but in some places its kind of SHH but with a sort of a j sound. My Spanish is pretty good but with street being "Calle" that little change made getting directions very difficult, especially in Argentina, where they speak at 100mph anyway

      Oh man - the ups and downs of learning a new language - it can be so rewarding but also super frustrating at the same time! But very important to try and speak the language at least a bit in every country you go to - out of respect!

      🙏 thank you! We love the food parts to haha! The mezcal was cannabis infused - cbd. The flavor profile was very interesting, it was really good. Bouler said the bubbles, also called the pearls of the mezcal, tell you what percentage of alcohol it is. I believe it was around 40% which is normal for mezcal. He also designed the masks - multi-talented man! Thanks for your support!

    I have been living in Oaxaca City (lived in five locations and chose Centro as my favorite) for six months now and it is so fun to re-watch your Oaxaca videos. You do an amazing job! I felt a little sad at how much Jalatlaco has become elbow to elbow with Tourists, some of the art has been destroyed or is just gone, with ugly graffiti in its place, and a few of the restaurants you featured are gone. Jalatlaco is always super crowded anymore with tons of people Air BnB-ing their homes and properties, and IMO is not nearly as charming as it used to be. It is refreshing to see this video of quieter days. I stayed next to Jalatlaco for my very first experience in Oaxaca. It is indeed a super charming Colonia. I am hopeful that the city will get quieter once the tourist season ebbs a bit. This video was extremely well done and most enjoyable.

    This Jalatlaco Tour is so pertinent and fortunate, the neighborhood is a perfect example of what Oaxaca City is made of: art, culture and history. Many beautiful places in Mexico but Oaxaca City and State are representative of originals’s fight against the cultural extirpating. Contributions from Dominicos were important to preserve part of this living and transforming culture.
