- If you like night life, try the antros (clubs) in Cholula. Many don't charge cover. There is also abundant live music throughout Puebla. Smaller and less popular antros are also located in the Los Sapos district, only a few blocks from the Zocalo.
- Take a tour around the city on a tour bus. This may seem very touristy, but this is a really cheap easy way to get a quick view of some of the coolest attractions in the city. It also is a way to get a good bearing before you decide to set off and dive into some of the attractions the city has to offer. The tour is in Spanish, but you can ask for headphones when you get on the bus and then you'll be able to listen to a translated in several languages. The bus has several stops along the route where you can get down and get up.
- As the temperatures go down in the winter to 5°C at night, you can go to a sauna in the morning. For example to the 1 Baños de Vapor "Neptuno". You can have a private sauna room for M$42-46 per hour. Or go into the common sauna for M$35. Open F-W 08:00-20:00, Su 08:00-16:30 (updated Nov 2021)
