Mitla insights


Colonial church

The site also has a colonial church that the Spanish built over an ancient temple.


Encroaching town

The archaeological site is engulfed by a town of the same name. Homes closely border the archaeological site.


Getting there

Most visitors reach Mitla from the major city of Oaxaca, one-hour by car away. On the road you pass the very broad Tule Tree. It's reputed to be 2,000 to 3,000 years old. If so, it's older than the Mitla ruins.
