Mission

Talking about a place like Mitla, is to talk about history, mysticism, tradition and magic; about a place that inhabits in the eternity, where time is diluted to exist in the middle of an atmosphere full of color, smell and taste which allows us to live a past that is present. Thus the greatest charm that Mitla offers to the world is not found in what can be seen, rather it is in everything that is behind, in its past, its history, in that mystic process carried out through the years and that is materialized in each product born in this place.

Mitla has been from its origin, a symbol in itself, not a place, rather an entrance, a passageway that has its own life, wrapping with its charm anyone who closes his mortal eyes and opens his heart to begin seeing from the soul, allowing itself to be carried away to that magical place which cohabits in the same space of all the perceptible that many appreciate but few live. The wealth of Mitla is found in the environment, in the surroundings, in the breathing of the legendary air that runs from ancestral times through this place, witnessing the mysteries hidden in the past of the old Zapotecs who currently are the last guardians of the this singular wisdom and that open that door to the whole world; allowing thus to cross the limit between the past and the present, between the old and the modern, between magic and reality, between this life and the other. And is that Mitla is rich day and night, from any point that is admired, by any perspective taken in a photo, because in every view, ritual, act and product has a reason to be, a reason to exist and show it like that.

Xibalba (Quiché), Lyobaá (Zapotec), Mictlán (Náhuatl) o Mitla (Spanish), are some of the names given to the “place of rest”.
