We’ll show you the most beautiful secret gardens you should visit in Oaxaca:
Gardens of the Quinta Real de Oaxaca Hotel
This hotel and former convent located in Oaxaca City was founded by Fray Domingo de Betanzos in the 16th century. It was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site for the more than four centuries of history it houses.
In addition to its colonial rooms and halls, the hotel has an unparalleled charm thanks to its beautiful gardens of bougainvillea, orange trees, and roses, which create a magical contrast with the stone wash houses.
These gardens are the special occasion you needed for romantic walks or relaxation.
Casa Antonia Gardens

You’ll be captivated by its central courtyard with an interior garden surrounded by symmetrical arches and stone columns reminiscent of the architecture of ancient convents.
This space is filled with natural light and a gentle breeze, creating an atmosphere of peace and tranquility. Here, guests can enjoy a coffee or read a book.
Additionally, you can admire the city’s incredible landscapes from Amá Terraza, a perfect spot to enjoy the sunset with friends.
Café Brujula
At this café, you can enjoy delicious Oaxacan coffee in a green space with trees and colorful decorations characteristic of Oaxaca.
This picturesque establishment features a variety of coffees from local producers, making them richer and purer.
