Tepoztlan is the kind of place where you can do as much or as little as you want. The town is very accessible and everything is within walking distance. It is a perfect place to enjoy the amazing views, made even more special by the mystical vibe of the place and the people.
Shopping is excellent with many unique items ranging from jewelry and decor to handicrafts. Tepoztlan is the perfect place to get back in touch with mother nature and there are numerous walking paths to be explored.
Make the hour and a half climb up to the ruins on the sierra (pictured) – it’s worth the slog. Just try to avoid doing it on Sundays when the track is very crowded with Mexicans visiting from the city.
Shopping
The local handicrafts market sells items such as souvenirs, textiles, and silver. When tour buses arrive, many handicraft vendors sell their wares outside the cathedral gates. Onyx, quartz, crystals and tiger’s eye are sold at several of the public markets around town as well as other gifts, souvenirs, and crafts.
