Colonial Heart
Inland Mexico: quarry-stone cities, mezcal, mole and centuries-old markets.
The Colonial Heart is inland Mexico: quarry-stone cities, centuries-old plazas and a cuisine recognized as World Heritage. Its capital is Oaxaca City, where mezcal, mole and markets fill a historic center of cobbled streets and colorful façades. Climbing here from the coast is like changing worlds: from the wild Pacific to the cool mountain air, among artisan villages, agave valleys and archaeological sites like Monte Albán. It's a region for the traveler who seeks slow culture — black-clay workshops, smoke kitchens, calendar festivals — more than beach. The road up from Puerto Escondido is a high-altitude road trip that is already part of the destination. With KORU RENT you arrive at your own pace and use the city as a base to explore the central valleys without depending on schedules or excursions.
