Timeline
09:00
Step inside the former home of Gertrudis Duby Blom. The museum opens at 09:00, giving you the morning light and quiet to explore the library and the house itself. The grounds in Barrio El Cerrillo are peaceful this early.
10:00
Walk 13 minutes to Café Museo Café. This spot is run by a collective of indigenous coffee growers, and the displays on Chiapas coffee history are compelling. Order a coffee and let the morning settle in before the heat rises.
11:00
Head 10 minutes away for a late lunch. Restaurante Taniperla is open and serves a noteworthy quesadilla recipe. It is a reliable spot for a solid meal with vegetarian options and live music if you stay a while.
