puebla

I went to Puebla, three or four months ago. Puebla is located about two hours away from Mexico city, its capital is Puebla (its name is shared to the state and the city) Iwent to downtown so as to take some pictures of the most traditional, touristic, distinguished places/things in Puebla.
Puebla is officially known as La heroica Puebla de Zaragoza. Its name comes from the battle against the french army. The mexican general Ignacio Zaragoza leaded this battle and succesfully won it.
Talavera is handycraft very popular from Puebla. The origen of the talavera currently made in Puebla comes from Talavera de la reina Spain. There are different styles: Arabic, Italian, Spanish, Chinese and of course Mexican.
The Cathedral Of Puebla was built by the architect Francisco Berrera, it was completed in 1690
The red double decker bus (turibus) is equal to the one I showed in the Auditorio Nacional post, the difference is that this one depicts specific things from puebla, such as Mole, Talavera, etc.
... I wanted to take a picture of a taxi, in order to show its colors (black and yellow, as the ones in new York.... as far as I know) and a better idea came to my mind: I pictured a volkswagen ( better known as Vocho) And I did so, because the last beetle was made in the volkswagen Plant in Puebla in July 30th 2003.
