Tepoztlán is one of the most vibrant and mystical Magic Towns (Pueblos Mágicos) in Mexico. Located in the state of Morelos, it is the perfect destination for those seeking nature, esotericism, and excellent gastronomy.
What to do in Tepoztlán?
1. Climb the Tepozteco Hill
The must-do activity. Prepare for a steep but rewarding hike. At the top, an ancient pyramid dedicated to the god of pulque awaits, offering spectacular panoramic views of the valley.
2. Visit the Traditional Market
Located in the center of town, here you can try:
- Itacates (triangular corn gorditas)
- Cecina de Yecapixtla (salted beef)
- The traditional exotic flavored ice creams (try the tequila with lemon!)
3. Relax in a Temazcal
Being a mystical center, Tepoztlán offers multiple options to experience a traditional pre-Hispanic steam bath, ideal for purifying body and mind.
Travel Tip: On weekends the town can get quite crowded. If you are looking for tranquility, we recommend visiting during the week.
Enjoy your trip!
