Tlaxcala, officially Tlaxcala de Xicohténcatl, is the capital city of the state of Tlaxcala in central Mexico. Founded in the pre-Hispanic period, the city played a significant role in Mexican history, particularly during the Spanish conquest when the Tlaxcalans allied with Hernán Cortés against the Aztec Empire.
The city preserves its colonial heritage through its historic center, featuring notable buildings such as the 16th-century San Francisco Monastery, one of the oldest in the Americas, and the Government Palace with its remarkable murals depicting the region's history. The city maintains strong indigenous cultural traditions alongside its colonial legacy, visible in its architecture, crafts, and festivals.
Known for its traditional textiles and pottery, Tlaxcala offers visitors insights into both its pre-Hispanic roots and colonial influences through its various cultural institutions and historic sites.
