The 15 Best Things to Do in Oaxaca (Updated 2025)

"Near Oaxaca, in the town of Santa María del Tule, the Montezuma cypress—estimated at 1,500–3,000 years old with a trunk diameter of about 14 meters—is a magnificent sight and quick to see, so I suggest combining it with other nearby activities." - Matthew Kepnes
