/24-7PressRelease/ - OAXACA, MEXICO, February 15, 2008 - Declared as a World Heritage Site by the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), Oaxaca's fame can be attributed mainly to the beauty and harmony of its architecture, the richness of its cultural traditions, the wide variety of its culinary offerings, and its year-round, mild, temperate climate.
The Hacienda la Noria, situated in at the heart of this quaint city rich in Mexico's vast heritage, offers guests the perfect vantage point from which to partake the city's many offerings. Beaches, archeological sites, museums, markets, and churches are all within reach, with the hotel's ideal location.
Apart from the above-mentioned attractions, it is likewise important to note that Oaxaca is one of Mexico's famous culinary destinations. Because the Hacienda la Noria is centrally located, guests can easily partake of the city's many gastronomic offerings by taking a trip to the zocalo and visiting any of the open-air marketplaces found there. Gastronomic delights such as the quesilla (a stringy cheese highly similar to mozzarella), empanadas de Amarillo (a turnover with a special yellow sauce), chorizo bien frito (well fried spicy sausage), the mole (a rich sauce that combines ground nuts, chilis, spices, tomatoes, and chocolate) can all be sampled right off the streets. Meanwhile, the adventurous can choose to try the exotic chapulines, or fried grasshoppers seasoned with salt, chili pepper, and lime juice; salsita de gusanos (maguey worm sauce); or the Mezcal, a fermented and distilled liquor derived from the Agave cactus.
After a day spent exploring, the Hacienda la Noria welcomes it guests home to any of its 81 spacious and tastefully appointed rooms all equipped with modern conveniences such as tiled floors, private baths, cable television, computerized phones, and ceiling fans. Attentive and highly trained staff from La Terraza and Las Cañastas, the hotel's bar and restaurant, respectively, will be more than willing to prepare any dish that will satisfy your gastronomic cravings.
