like an enticing jewel, beckoning travelers with its gleaming sapphire waters, balmy breezes, and powder-soft sands. While Cancun gets all the action, Tulum offers a more laid-back vibe with a focus on eco-conscious activities that highlight and support the natural beauty of the Riviera Maya. A variety of sightseeing spots scattered around the area gives you ample opportunity to do a little exploring \u2014 a Mayan ruin situated dramatically on the rugged coastline, fabulous caves and cenotes just perfect for diving in, miles of untouched coastline easily explored by bicycle.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The heritage-listed <strong>Tulum Ruins<\/strong> is impressive not just for its history but for the fact that the ruins are perched on a cliff overlooking a most splendid stretch of beach and brilliant turquoise waters. For adventurers, the naturally-formed, fish-filled <strong>Dos Ojos Cenote <\/strong>and its pristine underground rivers make a spectacular snorkeling and diving spot, while the Instagram-famous <strong>Gran Cenote<\/strong> is more easily accessible if you\u2019re after a quick dip. Head south and you\u2019ll discover the <strong>Sian Ka\u2019an Biosphere Reserve<\/strong>, a protected jungle that offers guided boat tours, hidden ruins, and incredible wildlife sightings. For more archaeological marvels to unleash your inner Indiana Jones, head out on a tour to the ancient <strong>Coba Ruins<\/strong> or venture even further to the <strong>Chichen Itza<\/strong> complex and climb its gigantic step pyramid.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  width=\"640\"  height=\"480\"  data-id=\"5180\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAoAAAAHgAQMAAAAPH06nAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAD1JREFUeNrtwQENAAAAwqD3T20ON6AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA4M8Al+AAAUvMG0oAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"Tulum, Mexico\"  class=\"wp-image-5180 pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-ls-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/www.tourhero.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/tulum-2-1.jpg\"  data-pk-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tourhero.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/tulum-2-1.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.tourhero.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/tulum-2-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.tourhero.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/tulum-2-1-110x83.jpg 110w, https:\/\/www.tourhero.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/tulum-2-1-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.tourhero.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/tulum-2-1-380x285.jpg 380w, https:\/\/www.tourhero.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/tulum-2-1-255x191.jpg 255w, https:\/\/www.tourhero.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/tulum-2-1-550x413.jpg 550w\" ><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  width=\"612\"  height=\"408\"  data-id=\"5181\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAmQAAAGYAQMAAADWZ2wAAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAADZJREFUeNrtwTEBAAAAwqD1T20KP6AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACAlwF8UAAB5mnzXQAAAABJRU5ErkJggg==\"  alt=\"Tulum cenotes\"  class=\"wp-image-5181 pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-ls-sizes=\"(max-width: 612px) 100vw, 612px\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/www.tourhero.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/tulum-cenotes.jpg\"  data-pk-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tourhero.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/tulum-cenotes.jpg 612w, https:\/\/www.tourhero.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/tulum-cenotes-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.tourhero.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/tulum-cenotes-110x73.jpg 110w, https:\/\/www.tourhero.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/tulum-cenotes-200x133.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.tourhero.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/tulum-cenotes-380x253.jpg 380w, https:\/\/www.tourhero.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/tulum-cenotes-255x170.jpg 255w, https:\/\/www.tourhero.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/tulum-cenotes-550x367.jpg 550w\" ><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  width=\"640\"  height=\"426\"  data-id=\"5182\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAoAAAAGqAQMAAACh3GetAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAADhJREFUeNrtwQENAAAAwqD3T20ON6AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD4NobKAAFhB0TLAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC\"  alt=\"Tulum Ruins\"  class=\"wp-image-5182 pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-ls-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/www.tourhero.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/tulum-4-1.jpg\"  data-pk-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tourhero.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/tulum-4-1.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.tourhero.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/tulum-4-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.tourhero.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/tulum-4-1-110x73.jpg 110w, https:\/\/www.tourhero.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/tulum-4-1-200x133.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.tourhero.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/tulum-4-1-380x253.jpg 380w, https:\/\/www.tourhero.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/tulum-4-1-255x170.jpg 255w, https:\/\/www.tourhero.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/tulum-4-1-550x366.jpg 550w\" ><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background\" style=\"background-color:#e6e6e6\"><strong>Read more:<\/strong><br>&#8211;

Located on the Pacific Coast, it is a destination that embraces an authentic Mexican spirit through its culture,&nbsp;gastronomy,&nbsp;and&nbsp;traditions. Bolstered by its resort town reputation and beautiful beaches, you will also find a picturesque historical center with cobblestone streets dotted with art galleries, street murals, charming restaurants, and the ornate <strong>Church of Our Lady of Guadalupe<\/strong>. Puerto Vallarta\u2019s lush surroundings also offer some of the best ecotourism and adventure activities, from horseback riding to hiking, ziplining to skydiving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The essence of the town is captured through a leisurely stroll down the vibrant and iconic <strong>Malecon Boardwalk<\/strong>, itself peppered with shops, restaurants, and art sculptures, and provides the best front-row seats to Puerto Vallarta\u2019s perfect sunsets. The <strong>Romantic Zone<\/strong> on the other side of the <strong>Cuale River<\/strong> is where you\u2019ll find a cosmopolitan and inclusive neighborhood crowded with trendy restaurants, plazas, bars, and a buzzing nightlife to enjoy as the sun goes down. Want a bit of nature? Step away from the coast and enter the <strong>Vallarta Botanical Gardens<\/strong> up in the mountains to explore a 64-acre magical world of orchids, cactuses, cocoa trees, dancing butterflies, and flighty hummingbirds.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-4 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure

Its history is still visible through its narrow subterranean streets, tunnels, and the <strong>Boca del Inferno<\/strong> mineshaft that plunges a breathtaking 600 meters. Proclaimed a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1988, travelers from far and wide have flocked here with the intention of exploring its winding network of alleyways typified by the <strong>Callej\u00f3n del Beso<\/strong> (Alley of the Kiss) \u2014 so named because the balconies of the buildings are so close and cars are unable to pass through the narrow spaces. Pink sandstone buildings, small plazas, and colonial-era mansions line the streets, and plenty of landmarks will keep history buffs happy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The churches of&nbsp;<strong> La Valenciana <\/strong>and <strong>La Compania<\/strong> are said to stand among the best examples of baroque architecture, while the <strong>Dieguino Convent Museum<\/strong> is where you will find the excavated underground skeleton of a 17th-century cloister that remained buried for almost 200 years. A macabre spectacle awaits in the <strong>Museum of the Mummies of Guanajuato<\/strong>, which exhibits a large collection of mummified bodies that date back to 1870. Don\u2019t forget to explore the <strong>Calle Subterranea<\/strong> \u2014 once an ancient riverbed, it is now a unique underground street that cuts below the Historical Center for eight kilometers

the largest Spanish-speaking city in the world, is big and bold. Thriving with new hotels, chic restaurants, a contemporary art scene, and intriguing museums, the densely populated city has seen a revival and a reinvention of its identity in recent years. That\u2019s not to say the city\u2019s history has been peeled away \u2014 wander around enough and you\u2019ll encounter grand historical buildings in neoclassical and art nouveau styles, old galleries, and ancient canals worthy of exploration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step into the 17th-century <strong>Palacio Nacional<\/strong> and visit the <strong>Biblioteca Miguel Lerdo de Tejada<\/strong>, one of the most renowned libraries in the country. The grandiose palace is also home to Diego Rivera\u2019s incredible \u2018The History of Mexico\u2019 murals, a stunning depiction of Mexico\u2019s history from ancient Aztec times to the present. For art on an even larger scale, the white-marble building of <strong>Palacio de Bellas Artes<\/strong> showcases exhibitions by world-famous Mexican artists and hosts notable events in music, theater, dance, and opera.
