Tulúm the enigmatic Mayan city / Tulúm la enigmática ciudad maya











Nestled between the white sand that draws the crystalline beaches of the Caribbean Sea and lush tropical rainforest lies the enigmatic Mayan city of Tulum, the only one built by the sea.


Located on the Yucatan Peninsula in the state of Quintana Roo in southeastern Mexico, on the northern border of the Biosphere Reserve of Sian Ka'an.It is located 145 km south of the cosmopolitan city of Cancun. Tulum is divided into three distinct areas, the Hotel Zone, the People and the archaeological site. In the first are some of the most spectacular beaches on the Caribbean coast, many still consider Virgin, and is distinguished by its simple architecture that shows a deep respect for the environment, its rustic cabins and small hotels were built in total harmony with the natural beauty of the surroundings.






The old walled city, built on top of a 12 meter cliff overlooking the Caribbean Sea, covers the remains of one of the finest cities of the ancient Mayan world.

For many years, Tulum has been a mecca for travelers in search of physical and spiritual relaxation,  among the many attractions offered to visitors . Therefore, Tulum is definitely the ideal destination for eco-archaeological nature lovers, sun, and history.






Acurrucada entre la blanca arena que dibuja las cristalinas playas de Mar Caribe y la exuberante selva tropical yace la enigmática cuidad maya de Tulum, la única construida junto al mar.
Está situada en la Península de Yucatán en el Estado de Quintana Roo, al sureste de México, en la frontera norte de la reserva de la Biosfera de Sian ka'an. Se localiza 145 km al sur de la cosmopolita ciudad de Cancún. Tulúm se divide en tres áreas diferentes, la Zona Hotelera, el Pueblo y la Zona Arqueológica. En la primera se encuentran algunas de las más espectaculares playas de la costa caribeña; muchas aun se consideran Vírgenes- y se distingue por su sencilla arquitectura que demuestra un profundo respeto por el medio ambiente; sus rústicas cabañas y pequeños hoteles fueron construidos en total armonías con la belleza natural de los alrededores.
La antigua urbe amurallada, erigida en la cima de un acantilado de 12 metros con vista al Mar Caribe, abarca los vestigios de una de las ciudades más exquisitas del antiguo mundo maya.
Por muchos años, Tulúm ha sido la meca de viajeros en busca de relajación física y espiritual; forman parte de las numerosas atracciones que ofrece al visitante. Por esto, Tulúm es, sin duda, el destino eco-arqueológico ideal para los amantes de la naturaleza, el sol, y la historia.
