Fiesta!

by TheWanderingCamel - last update: May 19, 2008

Pure chance found us walking down a Oaxaca street one evening and running into this parade - university students celebrating the city's 400th anniversary.

The lighting provided by brilliant late afternoon sun behind us and heavy grey clouds in a bright blue sky was dramatic enough - add in the backdrop of a canary yellow building and the gorgeous colous of the costumes worn by the revellers - what a fabulous sight!

 I can't agree with you more. I love Oaxaca and it's surroundings. Have you ever walked along the ridge line to Monte Albon? It's side of Oaxaca that I enjoy.

 Oaxaca is a jewel that shines brightly in your tips. One of my favorite Mexican cities for a flavor of real Mexico away from the beach.
