Description
Tlaxcala is one of the smallest states in Mexico, located in the central part of the country. It is bordered by the states of Puebla to the west and south, and is known for its rich history and significant cultural heritage. The state capital, also named Tlaxcala, is located in a valley surrounded by mountains, making it a uniquely picturesque location.
The region is renowned for its indigenous heritage, particularly from the Tlaxcaltecs, who played a crucial role during the Spanish conquest of Mexico. They allied with Hernán Cortés and were instrumental in the fall of the Aztec Empire. Today, Tlaxcala celebrates this history through various festivals and events, highlighting its strong traditions.
In addition to its historical significance, Tlaxcala is also known for its natural beauty. The state features various parks and reserves, such as the La Malinche National Park, which offers opportunities for hiking and enjoying the outdoors. The local cuisine, including traditional dishes like tacos and mole, further enriches the cultural experience of visitors.
