Introduction to Puebla
East of Mexico City, Puebla, the fourth most populated city in Mexico, is worth a visit if you are in Mexico City. It is a colonial town full of colorful chapels, churches, ex-convents, and monestaries. The city is famous for it's Tavalera tile production (tiles that you will see on more than one building as you make your way around the city), delicious candies, and the invention of mole (the fabulous sauce that combines chile, chocolate, and sometimes as many as fifty other ingredients). Cholula, a suburb just five minutes from Puebla, is home to a great church that was built on top of a pyramid and the Universidad de las Americas, a private university that has brought a good number of young people to the area.
