Let yourselves be captivated by the street art of the Jalatlaco neighborhood, the most colorful corner of Oaxaca. You'll discover its famous Day of the Dead murals and visit the workshops of local artists in this Magical Town. A must-see!
We'll meet at the Eden Gallery, to begin a free walking tour of one of Oaxaca's most colorful and historic neighborhoods. Are you ready to discover why Jalatlaco was declared a Magical Neighborhood?
We'll start walking along its characteristic cobblestone streets, where pre-Columbian times, colonial heritage, and contemporary art converge in an explosion of color. Accompanied by a guide who is also an artist, we'll dive into the history of this neighborhood, which has managed to preserve its essence despite the passage of centuries.
Did you know that its proximity to the General Pantheon directly influences its aesthetic? We'll stop to admire the impressive murals adorning the facades, whose themes mostly revolve around the traditions of the Day of the Dead. We'll learn to interpret these works and discover the importance of urban art as a cultural driving force in the area.
Our tour will also take us to various local art workshops and galleries. There, we'll discover techniques as varied as printmaking, painting, and the political prints that give Oaxaca so much character. You'll also have the opportunity to see firsthand the work of the artists who keep the creative flame of the neighborhood alive.
A stop in front of the Jalatlaco church and its trees, some over 360 years old, silent guardians of local history, is a must. While enjoying the bohemian atmosphere, we'll give you the best recommendations for cafés and culinary gems so you can experience the neighborhood like a true Oaxacan after the tour.
After a 2-hour tour, we'll wrap up the free tour in the heart of Jalatlaco, where you can buy various traditional souvenirs, such as alebrijes—handcrafted wooden figures that are typical of Mexico.
This free tour does not allow groups of more than 6 people, even if they book separately.
