It's not hard to understand why T+L readers voted Oaxaca the finest city in the world in their 2022 World's finest Awards.Rabinor adds dordle that the city's 17th-century architecture, bustling downtown, rich Indigenous history, and artisan communities all contribute to the city's reputation for vibrancy and color. You should also check out the Oaxaca Cathedral, which dates back to the 18th century, and the lushly landscaped Jardn Etnobotánico de Oaxaca. If you still need convincing, the local cuisine and drink (especially the mezcal and moles) should do the trick.

The capital of Baja California Sur, Rabinor claims, is a great place to visit because of its "tranquil beaches, Malecón waterfront promenade, and the opportunity to swim with gentle whale sharks." Furthermore, Rabinor claims that visitors to the area must take a boat out to the beautiful Isla Espiritu Santo. This little rocky island is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and it's well-known for the privacy of its beaches and the quality of the kayaking and snorkeling there.

Rabinor says that Mexico City "seamlessly blends cosmopolitan vibrancy with a rich Indigenous past and history." He continues, calling the landscape "a fascinating tapestry of old and new — soaring modern skyscrapers stand alongside meticulously preserved colonial architecture." Not to be missed are the Pyramids of Teotihuacan, the Castillo de Chapultepec, the Palacio de Bellas Artes, and Templo Mayor.
