Hotel Posada Quinta Metepec

Atlixco is a city in the Mexican state of Puebla. It is a regional industrial and commercial center but economically it is much better known for its production of ornamental plants and cut flowers. The city was founded early in the colonial period, originally under the jurisdiction of Huejotzingo, but eventually separated to become an independent municipality. The municipality has a number of notable cultural events, the most important of which is the El Huey Atlixcayotl, a modern adaptation of an old indigenous celebration. This event brings anywhere from 800 to 1,500 participants from all over the state of Puebla to create music, dance, and other cultural and artistic performances. Atlixco joined the UNESCO Global Network of Learning Cities in 2018.

Atlixco is known for its beautiful landscapes, historic architecture, and vibrant cultural scene. The town is situated at the foot of the Popocatepetl volcano and surrounded by lush greenery, making it a great destination for nature lovers. The streets are lined with colorful colonial buildings, and the central plaza is a hub of activity where locals gather to socialize and enjoy traditional foods.

One of the main attractions in Atlixco is the San Miguel Arcangel Church, a stunning 16th-century structure that features a beautiful bell tower and intricate facade. Another must-see spot is the Atlixco Flower Clock, a giant clock made entirely out of flowers that changes with the seasons.
