Colonial Buildings of Puebla, Mexico

Although Puebla is a bustling city of more than two million, the central core surrounding the Zocolo is charmingly colonial.  Puebla is a mere 75 miles from Mexico City.  Buses leave from the northern bus station, but a better option is to board a luxury bus from the airport.  Our flight arrived a little before 6AM allowing us plenty of time to clear customs and board our 7:30 bus.

Puebla is on the mole trail, justifiably famous for its cuisine.  For shoppers, Puebla is the home of colorful talavera pottery.  Churches are a tourist staple.  But our first set of pictures focus on the colorful colonial architecture.
