In every city that I visit or tour, sooner or later I go on a discovery tour or follow tips from locals, return to places that I had previously memorised because I found them interesting or whatever. In Puebla, apart from a few buildings and places that I wanted to check out on my discovery tour through the streets of Puebla, these were sights that don’t fall under the main sights of Puebla. At least most of them don’t.

Puebla Library: I discovered the Biblioteca Palafoxiana in Puebla online when I googled sights in Puebla. As I’m not only crazy about books, but also love the charm and atmosphere of old libraries, I went there. For all book and library fans: a very sweet place. As I could more or less see everything from the door, I decided not to pay the entrance fee.
To go or not to go? You can if you like old libraries, but you don’t have to :D😊

Museo de la Talavera Poblana Armando: This museum is totally hidden in the centre and looks more like a shop when you look in from the outside. That’s why I actually went in and suddenly I was standing in a museum. I’m not really interested in ceramics or museums like this, but the lady who runs the museum was so friendly and sweet that I decided to visit the museum without further ado. And on top of that, I also got some sweet memories, which were even captured on camera 😀
To go or not to go? No, unless you’re interested. But the people there are very nice 😊

Pasaje Histórico 5 de Mayo: The underground tunnels of Puebla are… completely underrated in my opinion. Honestly. It’s somewhere between funny, scary and interesting down there. And no matter who you are, walking through tunnels underground that are either lit normally or with blue light and tell a story while you walk through, play music or are accompanied by dripping noises…. So I was very surprised. Positively, of course. I don’t think I paid an entrance fee, which was also a positive surprise. The tunnels you can visit are not long. So it’s a 15-minute flying visit. But I think it’s very cool!
There or me? Yes! I think it’s worth trying to include this on the Itinerary Puebla. It’s an absolute insider tip in my opinion, because there was hardly anyone there, which made the atmosphere really underground 😀

La Estrella de Puebla: Unfortunately very far off the beaten track near a shopping centre – which is also how I discovered it. I had to get something and then thought to myself <<Oh, a Ferris wheel. If I have time to spare one day, I’ll come back here for the sunset>>. From the Estrella de Puebla you have a great view of the mountains in the background and… as I actually had the time on my second visit to Puebla and got on one of the gondolas just before sunset… It was really nice, I have to admit. 😀
To go or not to go? The shit is really too far away to squeeze it into the Itinirary – unfortunately. So if you need to get something in a shopping centre or really have time to kill, then yes. Otherwise, as much as I hate to say it, it’s not worth the long journey.
