Puebla is founded in 1531. It is situated in a valley round which there
are the 3 highest volcano's of Mexico. Most famous is, POPOCATÉPETL,
what 'smoking mountain' means.
Because there are a lot of angels in the city, on almost every corner of a
street, it is also known as 'the cities of angels'. Puebla is famous
because of its "Puebla, or talavera pottery" and the famous ceramic blue and
white tiles.
