Puebla is a central Mexican state anchored by Puebla de Zaragoza, a UNESCO World Heritage colonial capital famous for baroque Talavera-tiled churches, the birthplace of mole poblano, and the site of the 1862 Battle of Puebla that gave rise to Cinco de Mayo. Just west of the capital, the town of Cholula holds the Great Pyramid of Tlachihualtepetl, the largest pyramid by volume on Earth, while the twin volcanoes Popocatépetl and Iztaccíhuatl dominate the state's western skyline.
