Colonial Center

Puebla State - Capital

Location: Downtown Puebla

The look, feel and atmosphere in Puebla's colonial center is distinctly Spanish/Moor. The colonial center is well preserved; the streets are cobbled or laid with old-style paving stones. The atmosphere is a relaxed one and the surroundings are colorful; the spirit here is distinctly colonial.

Start your experience in the main plaza (Zocalo).  The main tree lined square is surrounded by a selection of shops and restaurants; many people take breakfast here.
