The peaceful paradise, #Mérida, features a blend of colonial houses and Mayan ruins between which the city shares its heritage. Begin your #vacation at Plaza Grande and #explore the surrounding pastel streets filled with architectural treasures and cool parks.

Mérida’s many museums cover everything from Yucatan song to the folk arts of Mexico. The Museum of The City of Mérida charts the rich and sometimes turbulent history of Yucatan’s capital. #Visit the Yucatan’s Anthropology and History Museum and nearby, the Great Museum of the Mayan World which creates a striking contrast to Mérida’s historic streetscapes.

Mérida is surrounded by ancient Mayan cities such as Dzibilchaltun, Mayapan, Uxmal, and Chichén Itza. The Yucatan Peninsula has an incredible network of over 6000 cenotes. Some, such as the Sacred Cenote of Chichén Itza, were considered portals to the afterlife.

Mérida is undoubtedly one of the coolest and most cultural cities in Mexico.

For now, we hope you enjoy watching this #travel #guide as much as we enjoyed making it.

    @Expedia THUMBNAIL IS NOT MÉRIDA, ITS VALLADOLID – Calle 41 and Iglesia de San Servacio!! My own videos of both Mérida and Valladolid are far more accuarate and lists all you need to see. Watch them and read the video info instead for accurate info.

    Hello, very interesting, it served me super well and I went to all the places you mentioned, in addition to going to all the cenote towns and beaches I did it by motorcycle, in Mérida you can rent quite powerful and comfortable automatic motorcycles to make trips to the points of Yucatan interest, it is a super adventure, besides that I am very practical, I recommend it, in case your subscribers are interested, I will leave how to find the company that rents the motorcycles (I do not remember what they are called) but you can search in Google as " rent scooter rent motorcycles ”, it seems to me. They include a comprehensive coverage insurance in the cost of the rent. In this way, in 5 days I managed to visit a lot of points of interest and return the nights to my airbnb in Mérida. Greetings
