Few cities offer a cool climate early in the morning, perfect for a hot cup of coffee, and then at midday the ideal temperature for an ice cold beer. The city of Puebla, two hours from Mexico City, is surrounded by the highest summits in Mexico including Popocatépetl and Iztaccihuatl, as well as La Malinche. The historical center of the city is a UNESCO world heritage site so there is plenty of culture to inhale whilst digging into some of the best food in Mexico.

18 Experiences You Need To Have in Puebla City Before You Die
1. Walk through the Xanenetla neighborhood and photograph 55 different murals representing the locals’ stories and dreams.
2. Ride a bike through Parque Lineal which will take you to El Jardín del Arte, La Estrella de Puebla, Eco Parque Metropolitano and Paseo del Río Atoyac. If you don’t have a bike then you can hike it instead.
3. For those sweet cravings visit La California and try some of the tasty paletas, flanes or gelatinas.

4. Do a cantinas tour. Don’t be afraid to try beverages with superstitious names like El Vampiro or El Charro Negro and take it easy with a subtle drink called La Pasita. Be sure to try the Sangria at La Terminal.

5. People say you can cure a hangover with chalupas…at the very least it’s a delicious snack to have before eating something more substantial. Find them in El Parián, outside churches on festive holidays, and in the evenings on street corners. If you prefer to sit down, try La Chiquita, a personal favorrite.

6. When you’re ready for some pulque, head to La Generala Pulqueria. Various flavors are served in cacariza, chivo and tornillo glasses. Chocolate, tomato or guava combinations are prepared with this so-called “drink of the gods”.

7. Visit the Museo Amparo terrace for a great view of the city and its churches. On weekends, in the evening, you can see the churches lit up and there is live music.

8. Is it Monday and you need to get rid of that stress? Don’t worry, lucha libre at Arena Puebla is the perfect place to shout and learn Mexican slang whilst you devour a cemita.
9. Visit Los Fuertes de Loreto y Guadalupe and take in the 360 degree panoramic view. If you’re lucky you’ll see four giants.
10. Drink a mojito at La Mina de Plata, a transit point for a tipple. With those prices maybe you should stay for two or three.
