Located in the northeast part of Morelos state in central Mexico and only 2 hours South of Mexico City , there is a Magic Town set to become the next foodie destination thanks to a strong influx of restaurateurs seeking to exalt Mexican cuisine while preserving the beauty and traditions of what was once a small Olmec settlement that stood next to a stream.
On the pebbled streets of Tlayacapan , indigenous vendors can still be heard having conversations in Nahuatl —the language of the Aztecs—while local artisans offer clay pottery, handicrafts, and even hand-made clothing to tourists. And scattered across the town, a handful of new dining and drinking spots are sheathed by a majestic green mountain landscape.
