We spent the day in Hierve el Agua, which was incredible! What a marvelous, stunning place. The rock formations, natural water pools, and surrounding lush mountains were absolutely beautiful, and the hiking was terrific. It only cost MX$50 per person to get in, and there were local vendors there if folks wanted to buy food, drinks, and items. The drive there and back from Oaxaca City were easy to navigate (good signage), and it took us about 1.5 hours. Definitely recommend, and I’ll be excited to return again one day!

Great food!! Breathtaking sights. Oaxaca really didn't spare a dime in putting on an excellent Dia de los Muertos event. Highly recommend Monte Alban, Hierve del Agua, Teotitlan del Valle, Ocotlan de Morelos, and el Arbol del Tule. There are a lot of places just outside of the city to visit. Would've loved to do more hiking!
