Pristine Caribbean coastline, arid
desert, rugged mountains, canyons, dense jungle and crisp, fresh
water cenotes combine to create one of the world's great landscape
dramas.
CULTURE
Remote villages remain in isolated pockets of land, where
traditional rural life continues at a pace far removed from the
sprawling metropolis that is Mexico City. Colourful markets retain
their Indian traditions, Mariachi bands proudly perform their blend
of ancient and colonial music and Catholic saints stand alongside
pagan symbols in rustic churches. Towns and cities are rich in
splendid colonial architecture, painted in glorious burnt oranges
and ochres, taking one back in time.
ANCIENT CIVILISATIONS
Ancient Civilisations & ancient cultures flourished in this
land centuries ago, leaving their majestic temples and pyramids
that surpassed all other civilisations of that time. Settlements
were mysteriously abandoned to the encroaching jungle even before
the arrival of the Spanish conquistadores and many remain entangled
in the dense vegetation creating a surreal, magical
atmosphere.
MODERN MEXICO
The popularity of the stunning coastline has superb
infrastructure, excellent hotels and services on the Pacific and
Caribbean cost line.
