The village where colorful wooden monsters are made
HERE’S THE INTERESTING PART
Immersing yourself in rural Oaxacan culture means agreeing to sleep surrounded by brightly painted, nightmarish hybrid animals. This artisan village is the epicenter of Alebrijes—surreal, hand-carved wooden creatures born from a 1930s fever dream. Staying with a local family means your breakfast comes with a side of intense machete-wielding craftsmanship and blindingly vibrant acrylic paints.
One discovery leads to another.
