After the martyrdom of Joseph Smith, the Saints were led from Nauvoo to the site of modern day Salt Lake City. It was not too long afterwards that Brigham Young directed the Saints to expand their growth into other areas. Elder Carl B. Pratt of the Seventy and president of the Mexico South Area, who presided at the groundbreaking ceremony on March 13, 1999, related the declaration made by President Brigham Young in 1863. Elder Pratt paraphrased saying, "that the Salt Lake Temple would not be the only temple built, but there would be hundreds of temples on the earth." He added, "Today, we are seeing the fulfillment of this prophecy." The Oaxaca Mexico Temple was dedicated on 11 March 2000, by James E. Faust. The Oaxaca Mexico Temple is officially considered the 73rd LDS Temple. Three other temples built are not considered in the official count. They are the Kirkland Temple, The Original Nauvoo Temple, and the Apia, Western Samoa Temple which was destroyed by fire on July 9, 2003. The Oaxaca Mexico Temple is located at Av.

The Xoxocotl�n International airport (IATA: OAX, ICAO: MMOX) Is the international airport located at Oaxaca, Oaxaca, Mexico. It handles the national and international air traffic for the city of Oaxaca. We have links on this page that will connect you with flights into and out of the Xoxocotl�n International airport and allow you to book any of several of the best hotels in Oaxaca. We suggest getting a hotel and then letting them arrange either a car or a tour of Oaxaca. If you call their Concierge Services ahead of your arrival, all of this can be pre-arranged for you. We do this all the time, when traveling in Mexico. It is safe and it works!!! We have never experienced a problem, doing it this way! We have used the services of Adan Fernando Castaneda and his taxi for three days in Oaxaca Mexico. We have found that Adan knows how to get around Oaxaca in a safe and effecient manner. Adan Fernando Castaneda is also an excellent guide. He is polite and very caring about his passengers. We found that he treats you as his friends and not as simply customers. We highly recommend that you contact Adan and that you use his services to tour Oaxaca. Adan can be reached at: Sitio Reforma Taxi Numero 576 Sr. Adan Fernando Castaneda Tel. sitio 51-5-56-38

We used this driver in January of 2005. Our comments are as of that date. We recommend this fine driver. We receive nothing from Adan for our comments and only place them here as a service to people who view our pages. Situations can always change, so we can assume no responsibility if this driver no longer performs according to our recommendation. If you find that this driver has changed and can no longer be recommended, we would appreciate hearing from you.
You can see a web page that we made for Adan at: http://www.delange.org/Adan/Adan.htm
We have placed links to Expedia.com on this page so you can arrange your flights into and out of Oaxaca; as well as your hotel, such as the Holiday Inn Express when visiting this area. We found that generally speaking, Expedia.com provides the best hotel and air flight prices into Oaxaca.
