Jardin Etnobotánico de Oaxaca
Oaxaca City, Mexico
Fence Post Cactus / Pachycereus Marginatus
The Jardin Etnobotánico de Oaxaca showcases the boundless biodiversity of the state of Oaxaca in southern Mexico. Located in the former orchard of the 16th century Santo Domingo Monastery, the 2.3 acre garden opened in 1998 thanks to the voices and efforts of local artisans who saved this space from becoming a luxury hotel.
Blue Agave / Agave Americana
The garden was designed with the connection of the plants and people of Oaxaca in mind. The beauty and benefit of these plants serves as a guide to the artistry of this culture-rich region. Each plant has a story to tell and a guided tour is a must.
Giant Prickly Pear Cactus / Opuntia Robusta
Red Jacarandas Tree
The Jardin Etnobotánico de Oaxaca will reopen when we can travel safely again. Forward thinking of must see places…
