Yucatan Peninsula:4 Awesome Things to Do

 

Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula is an area along the country's east coast with a wealth of natural beauty, including dazzling beaches and pristine coastline, intriguing Mayan ruins, charming fishing villages and many other popular tourist attractions. If you are on a Yucatan peninsula tour, don’t miss out on exploring these things:

Explore the wonders of Chichen Itza:

Chichen Itza is one of the most incredible sites in all of Mexico. This ancient Mayan city has been around for nearly 2,000 years and was once home to more than 100,000 people! Today it has become one of the most visited archaeological sites in Mexico and an important part of its history.

Visit the famous cenotes of Tulum:

Cenotes are natural sinkholes that form when limestone caves collapse or erode away over time. They can be found throughout much of Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula including at Tulum where there are over 100 natural cenotes right on site! Some are big enough for swimming while others have underground rivers that lead down into larger underground caverns where even more amazing sights await those who dare to explore them!

Take in some culture in Mérida:

Mérida, a beautiful and friendly city, offers lots of fun things to see and do. On Sundays the downtown area comes alive with music and dancing; there are craft markets and food vendors on the streets around the Plaza Grande. To cap off the night, you can enjoy cultural performances at Paseo de Montejo.

Try out some world-class cuisine in Playa del Carmen:

Playa del Carmen is known for its world-class restaurants. From fresh seafood to delicious steak fajitas and everything in between, this city has something for everyone! If you're looking for a chance to try something new (and possibly even exotic), this is definitely the place to do it—but don't worry if you can't read Spanish: many restaurants offer English menus as well.
