Puebla
High in the mountains, surrounded by snow-capped peaks and stunning vistas, the spires of 365 churches pierce the city’s skyline giving visitors a hint of Puebla’s Catholic heritage. With its UNESCO listed heart, neoclassical cathedral and baroque chapel, the city is a taste of Mexico’s Spanish history, while the bars, clubs, and thriving culinary scene bring it firmly into the 21st century.
Puebla is a wonderfully relaxed city to explore on foot, strolling the historic streets with their colourful houses and stunningly beautiful churches and popping to the cafes and restaurants for sustenance. Famous for its cuisine, Cocina Poblana, the city lays claim to the origin of Mole Poblano, the rich, chocolate-tinged sauce which is a must-try for any visitor.
