Alameda de León

This shady square, a bit smaller than the zócalo, is bordered by the massive cathedral on one side and the expertly restored post office on the other. Locals gossip on wrought-iron benches or read the newspaper while their children chase pigeons and blow bubbles.
- Address: Bounded by Av. Indepedencia, Av. Hidalgo, Calle 20 de Noviembre, and Calle Flores Magon, Centro Histórico, Oaxaca City, Oaxaca, 68000
