★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very beautiful church. Even if you are not Catholic, it is worth paying a visit; because this place is like a museum in the heart of the city centre in beautiful Oaxaca. In November they put a beautiful "ofrenda" an altar for the dead, which is not common in other catholic churches in Mexico. You must visit this place!!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I was so lucky because I didn't knew, but when I arrived the city was having La Guelaguetza. An annual indigenous cultural event in Mexico that takes place in the city of Oaxaca, capital of the state of Oaxaca, and nearby villages. The celebration features traditional costumed dancing by gender-separated groups. It includes parades of indigenous walking bands, native food, and statewide artisanal crafts, such as Pre-Hispanic-style textiles. Each costume, or traje, and dance usually has a local indigenous historical and cultural meaning. When I come back to Mexico, and for sure I will, that's going to be my first stop.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The Oaxaca Cathedral is the main church of the City and is located on the Zocalo square. It is easily distinguishable because its built out of the native green volcanic stone. The outside is massive, stocky, squat and fortress like. The baroque sculpted façade and the very tops of the bell towers are the redeeming value of its outer appearance. The interior is a standard basilica layout with a main nave and two side isles. It is not a very tall interior and not very impressively decorated. It is free to enter however and photos are allowed, however it is foremost a functioning place of worship so its good to be respectful.
