How To Visit The Mayan Ruins Of Tulum In Mexico

Image
Mayan Ruins of Tulum Tulum, Mexico You can’t visit Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula without seeing the Mayan Ruins of Tulum. Here are some useful tips to beat the crowds at this famous archaeological site. Ah, Tulum. This ancient walled city perched on the edge of a cliff in Quintana Roo overlooking the Caribbean ocean in Mexico is quite a sight in person. Because I lived in Mexico on and off for 2 years, I’ve visited the Tulum ruins at least 5 times now. Tulum’s original Maya name, Zamá translates as “place of the dawning sun.” This is because it has a perfect view of the rising sun! The city was a major trading and religious center between the 11th and 16th centuries and is one of the coolest Mayan archaeological sites in Mexico — similar to other popular ruins like Chichen Itza and Coba.

Ferrara might not be as famous with travellers like Bologna, Modena, or other cities in the Emilia Romagna region, but it makes for an ideal day-trip from Bologna, or an unexpected overnight stay, if you over-indulge in said Spritzs and miss the last train… my bad. Este Castle in Ferrara A relatively compact city, Ferrara’s architecture tells two sides of its history. With both renaissance and Roman art and architecture to celebrate it, Fer...

Where to Stay in Monopoli: Your Hotels & Accommodation Guide

Image
Trying to pick out where to stay in Puglia? If you’ve settled on Monopoli, I think you’ve made a fantastic choice. I may be a bit biased — when deciding on where to base ourselves in Puglia for our honeymoon, we ended up choosing to stay in Monopoli, a beautiful seaside city with both a historic old town and a vibrant new town. I think Monopoli is one of the best places to base yourselves on a Puglia road trip – not far from anything, not too touristic, and with plenty of great places to stay in Monopoli for a variety of budgets. Where to Stay in Monopoli Best Budget Hotels in Monopoli For the purposes of this post, I’ve defined ‘budget’ in Monopoli as being under $100 USD a night in the peak season. We visited Monopoli in November, so it was low-season — so low season, in fact, that many hotels and restaurants were already closed until the following year. If you choose to stay in Monopoli during this time of y...
