It's the third largest city in Mexico now, I believe. Should I blame the Pope? I'd better not. 😬 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you say, though, the colonial centre is manageable (on weekdays anyway). Don't know if you noticed, but quite a few French tourists go there (from France), probably because of the historical French connection -- the Battle of Puebla and all that. Not many Americanos and Canadianos make it south of Mexico City. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have same vibe with New Zealand, still like it but it isn't what made me love it the first time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

French tourists can be easy to spot -- they often have a certain "Je ne sais crois." 😎 Chiapas is a wild and wonderful state to explore if you haven't been. It's a lot like Guatemala, one of my favourite places. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
