Street Art of XOCHIMILCO, Oaxaca

I take a leisurely stroll through the vibrant, artistic streets of Xochimilco, a neighborhood in Oaxaca, Mexico that’s bursting with culture and history. From the moment I step foot on these lively streets, the beauty of Aztec-inspired murals and Day of the Dead art grabs my attention—each piece telling its own story and showcasing the rich traditions of Oaxaca. The street art here is truly next level, with incredible designs that blend ancient symbolism with modern expressions of Mexican identity.
Along the way, I uncover the hidden gems of the area, like the historic aqueducts that have stood for centuries and now offer a beautiful glimpse into Oaxaca's architectural past. This is a place where history and creativity collide in the most captivating way.
And what’s a tour through Oaxaca without a taste of its incredible food? Mid-way through the walk, we stop to enjoy a delicious meal at the cozy, local favorite—Chepiche Cafe.
