How To Visit The Mayan Ruins Of Tulum In Mexico

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.

Things to do in Imerovigli ? Below you find the 7 best ones 😉 Santorini is undoubtedly one the most beautiful places in the world! The island attracts thousands of vacationers, especially honeymooners, who are enchanted by its famous villages with whitewashed houses, cobblestone alleys and blue-domed churches. While Fira and Oia get most of the attention, and visitors, other villages such as Imerovigli, Firostefani and Pyrgos, remain unspoiled. I fell in love with Imerovigli during my first visit to Santorini in 2014. This dreamy village, known as the “Balcony to the Aegean”, is located on the north of the island and built on the highest point of the caldera cliffs, about 300 meters above sea level. Imerovigli is pretty, peaceful and relaxing, and the perfect choice for a more secluded and hustle-free holiday in Santorini. The beautiful village of Imerovigli, Santorini, Greece.
