  • Mérida - Welcome to the capital of the Mexican state of Yucatan. While much of the peninsula is famed for its resorts, Mérida is the epicentre of Yucatan culture, history and pride.
    When ready, browse vacation packages to Mérida: www.expedia.co...
    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.

    Merida has been on my heart since January after I considered Mexico as my next home. I've watched countless videos talking about the extreme heat, mosquitoes, flying cockroaches, and all, and somehow, I'm still being drawn to it. I think I'll go with my gut and continue to research, but it's such a beautiful place. Even despite the heat that people mention often.

Seriously though: I'd think a company as large and present worldwide as Expedia wouldn't tiptoe around offending conquistadors that have been dead for hundreds of years by now. Spent a month in the Yucatan and cant even justify watching the rest of the video after that claim. A gorgeous church that symbolizes the eventual defeat of the Mayan civilization
