Mexico is a top vacation spot and there is no doubt why. It is an amazing place that is not just somewhere to catch some sun on the sandy beaches. There are some great hot spots, like Tulum, that let you combine the historic sites and the great beaches for one unforgettable vacation.
Tulum has both a historical spin and a beautiful beach coast. It is located just south of Playa del Carmen and Akumai. Perched on the breathtaking limestone cliffs that overlook the Caribbean ocean you'll find Tulum.
Tulum is a very good combination of history and Mexico's beaches are well known. Instead of traveling all over to see different sites, you'll get to have both kinds of experiences in the same area.
History is important in Tulum. The archeological site here was built between 1200 and 1450. It is clouded in mystery, as are all Mayan ruins.
It was one of the last cities of the Mayans. The highest building in the city is El Castillo, a beacon to guide visitors through the coral reefs.
A unique aspect of the city was the wall that surrounds it in three sides. This wall is seven meters thick and up to five meters tall. The wall features a walkway so warriors could defend the city. The remaining side of the city is protected by the sea.
Today 60 buildings still stand at the site, which are all open for touring. Plaques adorn the walls to guide visitors, this allows for a self guided tour of the ruins.
Tulum also features amazing beaches, like those you expect from Mexico's coastline. They are considered some of the world's top scenic beaches, attracting visitors from around the globe.
The beaches have transparent blue water and white dunes. The coral reefs off the coast are a great place for diving and snorkeling.
The reef at Tulum, the Great Mayan Reef, goes from Cancun, Mexico to Roatan, Honduras making it the second largest in the world. It is 1000 kilometers with 120 kilometers at the Tulum beach.
Like to provide opportunities in the sea off the beach and see eighty four types of people, fish and other sea creatures of more than 450 varieties of coral. It is a true adventure.
Tulum is without a doubt one of the most amazing places in Mexico and has so much to offer. You will always remember your visit to this place, so rich this place is.
