Tlaxcala

In this episode, they head to the smallest state of Mexico called Tlaxcala. It is surrounded by low volcanic mountains, which are suitable for farming. Tlaxcala is a land-locked state situated on the Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt. Here they visit Hacienda, an estate with combination of plantation, mills and plantations. Haciendas were developed as profit-making, economic enterprises linked to regional or international markets. They then visit the bullfight rink where bulls are still released in the streets during the yearly August festival, and famous Mexican and foreign bullfighters come to test the strength of the Tlaxcala bulls. Afterwards, they head over to see a farmer who explains to them the ins and outs of the pulque production, or octli, which is an alcoholic beverage made from the fermented sap of the maguey plant. As they walk through the small capital city of Tlaxcala, they discover the quietness of the countryside with colonial aspects with parks, colorful buildings and arcades. They also came across museums and art galleries where they find a collection of Frida Kahlo paintings. They check on the mural painting on the Palacio de Gobierno done by a local artist who took about 30 years to complete the painting as it covers more than 500 square meters of the entrance hall and staircases. At the end of the episode, they visit the oldest bull rink in Mexico City, situated on a hill besides the Cathedral tower, where the young generations continue the tradition of practicing for the big event, which is the August festival.
