Puebla City, Mexico is unique in many ways, but one of which is that there are quite a few Pueblos Magicos extremely close to the city. While we travel Mexico, it is our goal to see as many magic towns aka, Pueblos Magicos, as possible. What is a Pueblo Magico? It is one of 121 towns within Mexico that offer tourists a special experience related to food, culture, history, events, or another notable characteristic that sets it apart from other places in Mexico.
In this Mexico travel vlog, we are exploring two Pueblos Mágicos: Atlixco, Puebla and Cholula, Puebla. When we arrive in Atlixco, we quickly find out that there is a festival of lights going on: Festival de la Iluminación. For a few weeks a year, Atlixco comes alive with string lights, carnival rides, ice skating, vendors, and much more for locals and tourists alike to enjoy during the Christmas season.
In Cholula, we start out by climbing the largest (by volume) pyramid in the world with a fantastic cathedral on top. At the top, we soak in a 360-degree bird’s eye view of Puebla City, Mexico. If you come during the right time, you can usually see the great volcano, Popocatépetl. Later, we hit the streets of Cholula to look into the local shops, see the colorful buildings, and relax in the plaza/zocalo of Cholula with a drink.
Which Pueblo Mágico do you think is the best of these two?

WHERE TO EAT IN PUEBLA, PUEBLA 2018
1. CasaReyna - A fancy experience and delicious food. Great for a special treat meal! (Tip: It has valet parking)
2. Rosaritos - Close to our Airbnb on Av. Juarez. Great food and drink specials and an upbeat atmosphere. (Tip: Uber/walk here to avoid the crazy parking lot!)
3. Dominica 19 - Great breakfast food with a chic vibe. (Tip: They have gluten-free pancakes, yay! Also, limited parking and sometimes they have valet.)
4. Restaurante IEU - This is a culinary school restaurant where you get amazing 3-course meals for a fraction of what they would cost in a 5-star restaurant. Despite these being chefs in training, you could have fooled us with the delicious food and amazing presentation. We ate here SO many times. (Tip: It's right by New Suites Sevilla!)
WHAT TO DO IN PUEBLA 2018
1. Explore Puebla Centro - There are hundreds of shops, vendors, and activities around the center of the city. Don’t miss the massive cathedral and museums in the area. We think you’ll also enjoy the beautiful colonial architecture in this area and throughout the city.
2. Zona Historica de los Fuertes - This massive park has a cable car overlooking the city, a lake with paddle boating, a lookout point to view Puebla City, museums, and dozens of other attractions that you probably won’t be able to see in a single day.
3. Visit the nearby Pueblos Magicos - After seeing both Cholula (~30 minutes away) and Atlixco (~40 minutes away), we absolutely recommend checking them out if you can. Both have unique offerings to eat, see, and experience.

this might be the cheapest city in mexico
With $10 in hand, we're attempting to see if San Cristobal de Las Casas, Chiapas has the lowest prices in Mexico.
►Subscribe to our channel!
Today we are attempting to exchange the price of one US movie ticket for a full day's worth of food and drinks. We love doing this $10 challenge in new cities because it forces us to try new food, explore parts of the town we've never seen, and break out of our shell.
We were shocked by some of the prices in San Cristobal de las Casas. Beyond food, the cost of living in Chiapas seems...well, you'll have to watch today's Mexico travel vlog and find out!
RESTAURANTS WE RECOMMEND IN SAN CRISTOBAL
1. El Tostador - excellent, fresh coffee with incredible prices!
2. El Ciprés - Delicious breakfast (especially those garlic potatoes) with some the lowest prices in town.
3. La Viña de Bacco - we recommend it for the cheap drinks ONLY (not the food)
4. Pachamama - Tasty pizza and salads, plus some well-priced wine and drinks.
5. Kinoki - A cool restaurant with an upstairs balcony, perfect for people watching. The oven-baked potatoes and pasta is great!
6. Restaurante Plaza Real - Breakfast combos (80 pesos and up) that will leave you stuffed! The food is also amazing.
7. El Frayle - We haven't tried anything except the sopes, but those were the best I'd tried in all of Mexico!
8. Carajillo Cafe - Another great place to try Chiapas coffee, or beans from other regions of Mexico for that matter. Not only are the atmosphere and food excellent, you get the coffee made right at your table with an explanation of the process.
WHAT TO DO IN SAN CRISTOBAL DE LAS CASAS
1. Walk around Mercado Santo Domingo where you'll find thousands of handmade treasures, unique to this city.
2. Visit Iglesia De Guadalupe and enjoy the picturesque view of the entire city—preferrably at another time of year so you avoid the rockets and other explosives.
3. Hang out in Plaza de Paz where you can buy local pastries from the area, soak in the view of Catedral de San Cristóbal, and people watch.
4. Try the local coffee. We recommend El Tostador especially, but you can find good local coffee almost anywhere.
5. Sample the food. Food in San Cristóbal de Las Casas is so flavorful, rich, and unique. Try as much of it as you can!
6. Enjoy everything there is to see, do, and taste while strolling on one of the many walking streets. You have everything from shops, vendors, restaurants, street music, and everything in between.
7. Get off the tourist path. We enjoyed doing what most tourists do in the city, but we strongly suggest you look into what this Pueblo Magico has to offer on the side streets, the nature, and those hidden gems you can only find from going out and exploring.
