- Yucatan's Caves and Cenotes
It was not until three centuries after the arrival of the Spanish that the great question of how the Mayan civilisation could have flowered in the Yucatan was finally answered. How could this flat and riverless plain ever have supported the growth of the huge city states whose ruins lie scattered upon it now? The answer is found in the cenote (pronounced sen-o-tay).
- Tulum
Tulum, or the "City of Dawn", is the Yucatan Peninsula's most popular Mayan archaeological site, and deservedly so. Clamber through the narrow stone arch entrance and the ruins of an entire city greet you.
- Dolores Olmedo PatiƱo Museum
The Dolores Olmedo Patiño Museum in Xochimilco houses the most important private collection of artwork by Diego Rivera. As well as 137 works by the famous Mexican muralist and painter, there are 25 notable works by Frida Kahlo, 43 by Angelina Beloff, and an extensive collection of Pre-Hispanic pieces and Mexican folk art.
- Xel-Ha
With its never-ending network of interconnected lagoons, natural pools, creeks, islands and caves, the tropical water park of Xel-Ha will enchant all water-babies. Less keen swimmers, meanwhile, cannot fail to be bowled over by the park's natural beauty.
- Xcaret
Self-labelled as "eco-archaeological", Xcaret is probably best descibed as a natural theme park. Encompassing beaches, butterfly houses, a coral reef aquarium and an underground river excursion, it is geared more towards families than those seeking seclusion. Its picturesque qualities, however, can't be denied.
