SUMMER 2016

Known as the fourth largest and most important city of Mexico, archiepiscopal headquarters and University nucleus, Puebla was also declared “World Heritage Site” by the UNESCO.Puebla can sometimes feel as if the colonial era in Mexico never quite ended, considering its fantastic colonial center, a stunning cathedral and a wealth of beautiful churches. More than a thousand colonial buildings are adorned with the “azulejos” (painted ceramic tiles) for which the city is famous, and furthermore it has a long culinary history that can be explored in any restaurant or food stall.A few kilometers away is the town of Cholula. A prominent symbol of the place is the Pyramid of Cholula in the center of town. She is 65 meters high and has a side length of 400 meters. Today the pyramid can be found as a hill covered with earth and grass, with a church on top.

ClimateThe climate of Puebla is mild and springlike throughout the year due to its altitude of 2.160 meters above sea level. The rainy season lasts from June to October. The remaining months there is almost no rain. Maximum temperatures are around 20 degrees in winter and about 30 degrees in summer. On winter nights, temperatures can rarely reach a few degrees below zero.
