Mérida

Kat´s Truth About Travelling

- In Chucks Around The World -

Mérida is an incredibly charming and cute little city in Yucatán, which manages to let tourists and locals coexist harmonically. Mérida let’s you get to know, in case you are willing to, about the Maya culture and newly awakes after sunset. With that meaning a lightshow, displaying the history of the city, a historic game or dance of the Maya and a dance at the end of the day to finish off nicely. During the weekend there’s also quiet some party vibe going on. Mérida is really very lively for it’s size! 😀

Handicraft Market

A market that felt sells everything you could possibly want or take with you as a souvenir, typical mexican or also for your loved ones at home: jewellery, clothes, mexican sculptures...

Streets of Mérida

Mérida is a cute and beautiful little town in the middle of Yucatán. There is always something going on, when you start to stroll around, and there is always something to see.

Market of Mérida

My very first mexican market. Colourful, chaotic, completely unstructured and really great. I won't ever forget this market.

Museum El Grand Mundo Maya

Would you like to learn a bit about Mayan history and culture? Here you can! Also nice for the ones who don't like museums too much 😉

Afterwork dance

A very cute tradition of Mérida. Every night after sunset people gather here to dance together to Kumbia.

Cenote-Tour

A daytrip to various of the most different natural oasises around Mérida. And there are plenty of them!

Railway museum

Sooo cool! Have you ever seen old and partly falling apart trains from former times from the inside? So cool, interactive and a roundabout positive surprise.

Uxmal

The coolest pyramid close to Mérida! Yucantán has plenty of pyramids. Uxmal is a bit like Chichén-Itzá just waaaaay less overcrowded, much more interactive and much cheaper.
