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.

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.
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.
