Located in the southern part of the Mexican Republic , the state of Oaxaca is bordered on the north by the states of Puebla and Veracruz , to the east by Chiapas , to the west by Guerrero, and to the south by the Pacific Ocean , comprising 95,364 square kilometers. The great valleys of the state are located between the Sierra Madre del Sur and the Sierra Madre de Oaxaca. The name of the state as well as the capital City, " Oaxaca " comes from the Nahuatl word "Huaxacac" (huaxin-a type of squash, yacatl-nose), meaning "in the nose of the squash."

The City of Oaxaca offers visitors great colonial architecture, including the Santo Domingo Temple, the Cathedral, the Government Palace, the Macedonio Alcala Theater, the Lesser Basilica of Nuestra Señora de la Soledad, the Rufino Tamayo Museum of Prehispanic Art, and the House of Cortes. You can also enjoy a variety of musical bands performing in the traditional "kiosco" and the " Alameda ."

In the surrounding areas of the capital city, visitors can explore several interesting towns, many of which contain important archaeological sites. Throughout the entire state are markets selling crafts and objects of popular art which are a treasure for collectors.
