This extremely ornate 17th-century chapel is part of the Santo Domingo Church.
Reviewed By minnesotans4 - Saint Paul, United States
There was a sign stating no pictures in the chapel which was disappointing but pictures couldn't truly capture the gilded ornate beauty of this 17th Century chapel which was part of the Santo Domingo Church. The chapel was in the new Spanish baroque style. The chapel worships the Virgin Mary and was used to teach the people the prayer of the rosary. Put this on your itinerary!

An example of tequitqui art, refers to the artistic manifestations made by indigenous people of the Mesoamerican area after the Conquest of Mexico. It can be said that it is the mixture of indigenous art with Christian art and you can see the process of transculturation between the indigenous and the Spanish.

This street is a popular antique shopping area by day and provides a lively musical atmosphere at night.
Reviewed By PerpetualHoppers - Toronto, Canada
Calle 6 Sur, also known as the Alley of the Frogs, is a must visit because of the many colorful buildings and the beautiful decorated houses along the whole street. If you want good photos, try to get there towards the early morning as the street will be empty and the colors will look beautiful in the morning light. And also the area near around Calle 6 Sur is a great place to hang around in a café or do some street shopping.

This huge baroque-style cathedral dominates the town's main square and is one of Puebla's most recognizable landmarks.
Reviewed By manve99 - Orlando, United States
Had a great time, with my wife and the two kids 13yrs and 12yrs old. Both my kids are into history and art, (something to keep in mind) We were lucky enough to attend mass on a Sunday when their ancient pipe organ was being played. I wedding was taking place, so the experience, even for us outsiders, was somewhat surreal, full choir, the organ playing and all the religious art around . Something we will never forget.

An old fountain rests at the center of this bucolic plaza, located in Puebla's historic district.

The first thing about a trip to Mexico is that Mexico is everything you didn’t know about Mexico…. and more ~ and in a land that offers the very best of cross-cultural experiences ranging back thousands of years, to today’s best, modern-day, but tradition-based foods and accompaniments, and offers everything in a dazzling array of colors, shapes and flavors. The cuisine is exotic, unfailingly creative, unerringly spiced and flavored, and exquisitely balanced in more ways than one would think possible. Forget tacos, nachos and tortillas.. that’s just scratching the surface of a vast repertoire that sucks you in and keeps your head spinning with more. Raw, fresh vegetables, dried herbs and preserved flowers, roots and other plant parts are creatively incorporated loosely and unhesitatingly into the mainstream of the meal: so much so that some dishes, when served, appear like floral arrangements more to delight the eye than the palette… but if you didn’t know better, you’d miss out hugely. Me ? I hadn’t a clue… but what a way to learn !! It grabs you by your taste-buds, and then dances around swinging you like a rag doll until it’s done… which may be never. We were invited to visit Mexico by a dear friend from our neighborhood in NY, who goes there every year. This was a special treat, and we were really lucky to be able to accept. Besides staying with her in Puebla for 5 days, we spent two days in Mexico City and then 2 days in Puerto Vallarta. Each place was an experience in a culture that amazed and delighted. Puebla has dozens of amazing restaurants all over the ancient city. The biggest attraction, though, is the 40-plus churches scattered across almost every central block in the City. And the main central square, the Zocalo, is the principal meeting place in town, where everything happens… slow and easy. On weekends, this space is filled with market stalls, hawkers, tradesmen, and the like, and the surrounding arcade is taken over by the numerous restaurants that occupy the square, offering fresh and delightfully prepared foods for a traditional breakfast, brunch or well into the evening meal, all eaten at out-door tables set up amongst a dazzling array of local tradesmen selling their wares as they walk around carrying impossible loads of things, wearing stacks of hats, and also carrying children on their hip, to boot. Fascinating. But unlike such hawkers in other countries, these folks do not bother you at your table unless one were to call them for something. So, this was our first full day there, and Sunday is market day, so we went out for a late breakfast, and I mean late: pre-siesta, almost… at the Zocalo. We settled at an establishment that looked promising, Puerta Azul, on the shady side of the vast square, and helped ourselves to a sumptuous meal of eggs, chicken bits, round crispy tortillas with shrimp and salsa, chicken with another kind and a bunch of beers and tequila (yes !) to start our day. When in Mexico, do as the …? The brunch was served buffet style, so you help yourself to as much as you like and they bring you the coffee, juices and drinks as you ask for them. No rush: it’s just another day in the park. For the three of us, our tab came out to 432 pesos, which at the time was about $22.00. Amazing, how far the Dollar goes in some places.

We went here early in the morning to avoid the crowds. The place is beautiful, well taken-care of, and big. You may need about 4hrs to walk all around it. It has numerous historic buildings, a hotel, a restaurant, a lake where you can fish for trouts, paddle boats, and a zip line to see everything from above. The grounds are very lush and green, there are streams and woods all around the place. Very recommended.

We visited the Estrella de Puebla in the evening. There was a short wait of 3-5 minutes and we were directed into a gondola. The revolution took approximately 25 minutes and we were able to enjoy the view of the city lights of Puebla.
