Oaxaca
  Capital: Oaxaca
State Population:
3,224,270

Description:
Like its neighbor Chiapas, the state of Oaxaca's population is largely made up of indegenous communities. The mix of Spanish colonial architecture and vibrant native culture make the state one the most interesting and charming regions in Mexico.

The Oaxacan Pacific coastline is home to some of the most beautiful beaches in Mexico, and the vast majority of the coast is still undeveloped. There are a number of resort projects that have recently been completed, and many more are in the works.

The capital, Oaxaca, is located in the middle of the state in the highlands of the Sierra Madre del Sur. The city features a wealth of colonial architecture, Indian markets, and unique restaurants.
