Amate Books, Oaxaca

 

 

 

Celebrated for its unique folk arts, distinctive cuisine and Spanish colonial ambience, Oaxaca has long been a favorite destination for visitors to Mexico.

From the baroque temples of the city of Oaxaca to the domed chapels that grace the smallest village, the colonial churches and their treasures are also a source of surprise and pleasure for the traveler.

This selection of web pages on Oaxaca, researched and created by Richard Perry, author of the guidebook Exploring Colonial Oaxaca, describes some of the hidden colonial gems of the region as well as exploring less well known aspects of the more popular monuments in the region.
