Xochimilco is one of the most traditional neighborhoods of Oaxaca City. This "barrio colonial" is located in the north part of the city, great for walking, art galleries, cafes. Generally a quieter part of Oaxaca.

Centro is the heart of the action in Oaxaca! Great dining, most of the Museums and Galleries, shopping and people watching. The very heart of Centro are the Zocalo and the Cathedral. Grab a sidewalk cafe table and see what's happening.

You should avoid the afternoon heat by going early in the day. The Abastos Market is huge, crowded, and noisy and many people have a better experience going with a local guide!
