The city of Merida, Yucatan, located on the northern portion of the Yucatan peninsula, was founded on the remains of the old Maya settlement known as Ichcaanziho, or “Five Mounds”.  The city is renowned for its traditions, culture and the kindness of its people. Above all, the city is famous for the beauty of its streets and buildings, where a magical past merges with today’s modernity. These characteristics do credit to Merida, making her worthy of the title “A very noble and loyal city”.

Merida is a place ready to share all its riches: from a calash ride, through a tour of its streets and buildings, a visit to its museums or a regional show, to the peculiar flavor of a Yucatecan dish.
