Private tours in Oaxaca City

Covering 2.32 acres of land, Oaxaca’s botanical garden sits adjacent to Templo de Santo Domingo. As you’re in the process of creating your Oaxaca itinerary, you can already tell that a handful of things on your list are right by each other, allowing you to naturally explore the city.

The botanical garden holds every single native Oaxacan plant species imported from all regions of the state. Not only do the plants range from both humid and dry climates, but they also adjust from cold and temperate mountainous areas.

And because it’s always hot in Oaxaca, the garden encapsulates the perfect scope of diversified plants.

The garden even has a popular walkway surrounded by plants, which is a perfect spot to take memorable reflections photos of the small body of water.

The Ethnobotanical Garden is part of the Santo Domingo Cultural Center which also includes the Oaxacan Museum of Cultures, the Francisco Burgoa ancient books library, and the Nestor Sanchez periodicals library. The garden is located behind the church and former convent, and unfortunately, many visitors miss it.
