If you are a traveler, I bet you love learning about different countries’ traditions and history. And Mexico is one of those countries which has very strong customs and culture.
We should go many centuries back in time to learn about the original civilizations in Mexico. The Mesoamerican region was home to many intertwined civilizations, which included the Teotihuacan, Maya, Zapotec, Olmec, Purepecha, and, finally, the Aztecs. This is why, nowadays, Mexico preserves its traditions so strongly.
Who doesn’t enjoy a stunning view?
Mexico is characterized for having breathtaking views: its beaches, its mountains and its lakes allow this country to have the most beautiful landscapes.
Located in the Islas Marietas National Park, the ‘hidden beach’ is one of the more relaxing places to spend the day.
On its part, the coastal city of Cabo San Lucas is the southernmost point of Mexico’s Baja península and it constitutes another lovely view.
In the Caribbean coastal state of Quintana Roo, you can find the marvelous Lake of Bacalar. With its pink color and clear water, it is perfect for snorkeling.
