Oaxaca Day Trip Idea: Shadow an Alebrije Artisan in San Martín Tilcajete
The not-so-ancient (or technically original) Oaxacan craft tradition of alebrije-making is one to make room for in your itinerary and San Martín Tilcajete is the town to target.
Bike to the 2,000-Year-Old El Arbol del Tule
Two wheel it to the world’s widest tree, a Montezuma Cypress known as “El Arbol del Tule.” The easy and flat ride is a straight 45-minute shot from downtown Oaxaca to the mammoth El Tule tree.
