Mexico – Historic Centre of Puebla
Puebla is among the top five largest cities in Mexico, and its historic center has been recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage site. The city of Puebla is large and cosmopolitan and combines modernity with a rich history and culture. There are plenty of sights and attractions for visitors to Puebla to enjoy. Here are ten of our favorite sights:
The Zocalo
Puebla’s Zocalo, the main city square, is large and attractive with green spaces, statues and monuments. This is a favorite gathering place and on the weekends it can be quite crowded with people strolling, sitting and enjoying some laid-back family time. Buy some cotton candy or other other street food on offer, and grab a bench in the shade to watch the people go by. This is the perfect starting point for a walking tour of Puebla.
Amparo Museum
The Amparo museum houses impressive collections of pre-Hispanic and colonial art, as well as hosting a variety of temporary exhibits. Its excellent museography and interactive displays make this a museum not to miss. There’s also a stunning view from the rooftop terrace.

Mexico – Historic Centre of Puebla
Puebla, Mexico is just a two-hour drive from the capital, and it overflows with fun for travelers. Here are the best things to do.
(CNN) — Puebla is the fourth-largest city in Mexico, just a two-hour drive from the capital (it’s 67 miles, but there’s no accounting for Distrito Federal traffic).
Yet it often gets tacked on as a day trip from Mexico City instead of treated like a destination in its own right. That’s all about to change, though, as a slate of new hotels and structural improvements make this vibrant city easier to travel to than ever.
