If you’d like to do a family vacation that provides just the right balance of relaxation, pleasure and culture, Oaxaca is an excellent option. You can begin your day with breakfast in the main square, then you can take a stroll along a tourist boulevard with stores and art galleries. You and your family can also visit places in the surrounding areas, such as archaeological zone Monte Alban, the Tule Tree and workshops where they make interesting types of pottery. When you return to the city, go and visit one of the traditional markets, where you’ll find a wide variety of regional Oaxacan cuisine. Later, you can hit a crafts market to buy garments, jewelry and many other kinds of items. At night, you can visit a bar or nightclub, where you can drink some fine mezcal while listening to music.
