The story

One of the most beautiful and complete trips we've ever taken!!!! Many know Mexico for the beautiful beaches of Cancun and Playa del Carmen, but this is only one of the many reasons to visit this country. The true wonders are scattered like precious stones in every part of the country. The capital is fabulous seen from the plane: it seems never to end!!!! And the archaeological site of Teotihuacan conceals within itself the mysteries of this people. Oaxaca and Puebla are not cities, but pearls of delicate beauty. Here you grasp all the folklore of this land. San Cristobal and its surroundings reveal the truest and most archaic face of the whole of Mexico, which finds its highest expression in San Juan Chamula. And what about Palenque? What a marvel: a world of its own blossoming in the jungle. Here the mind flies continually to the past.

And likewise for Chichen Itza: on all the leaflets and also in our hearts.
