The Road Trip to Tlaxcala
Tlaxcala, located in east central Mexico, is well worth visiting. And you’re welcome to this wonderful place!
Day 1: Pick up a car in Mexico City and drive out over the foothills of Popocatepetl Volcano. Head toward Tlaxcala City, stopping on the route to see the amazing murals (壁画) at Cacaxtla, an archaeological site with 1000-year-old ruins. After entering Tlaxcala’s historic center, you can walk over to the Catedral de Nuestra Senora de la Asunción to see its carved wooden ceiling in the Spanish Mudejar style.
Day 2: After breakfast, drive east to Contla, a village known for cloth. From Contla, drive southeast to Huamantla. The town’s central square is an ideal place to catch a quick snack of ice cream. Continue south to Ixtenco, a traditional Otomí community, for lunch in the kitchen of the Baltazar family. After lunch, drive north to the 17th-century Hacienda Tenexac, in Terrenate, where you’ll spend a peaceful night.
Day 3: Following a great breakfast prepared by Tenexac’s chef, Paz Yano Breton, join her for a tour of the residential quarters, which are crowded with amazing furniture collected over the past 200 years. Then head west to the industrial city of Apizaco. After lunch, a short drive north takes you into open fields.
Day 4: Wake at dawn for a 40-minute hike to the top of a hill behind the retreat. As the sun rises, you’ll enjoy a great view. After checking out, your next stop should be the town of Tlaxco for breakfast. From Tlaxco, head west through the Llanos de Apan, an agricultural region. And then stop for lunch at Xoletongo, and after lunch, head back to Mexico City.
