Attractions: With enchanting attractions offering plenty of sightseeing,
Mexico has consistently proven to be one of the most popular
holiday destinations in the world and for many a good reason. With
its exotic sandy beaches, blue waters and warm climate,
extraordinary history and diverse landscapes, there is something
for just about every kind of traveller in this vibrant and
colourful country. Spend a few days wandering round the ancient Mayan and Aztec
pyramids and ruins, explore the deserts and swamps, marvel at the
rainforests and discover a few of the 176 species of orchid along
the way, or navigate an eco-tour by mountain bike, jeep, kayak or
horseback. The 58 National Parks conserving indigenous fauna and
flora are enough to keep any eco-warrior dazzled and, boasting the
most species of birds in the whole of North America, Mexico is a
bird-watcher's paradise. Marine life is in abundance off these
tropical shores and the
(Gray Whale National Park)
is a must for whale watchers. Beach resort cities such as Acapulco, Cancun and those of the
Baja California region are considered to be a slice of heaven! The
cities display wonderfully unique architecture and evidence of
European colonial rule still exists, while El Zócalo in Mexico
City, the second largest city square in the world, is where it all
happens and is the best place to experience some real Mexican
flavour! Most domestic travel throughout Mexico can be done by bus with
several dozen companies operating by region. Train passenger
transportation between cities is limited but flying domestically is
considered the most efficient and safest mode of transport in
Mexico. With so much to see and do, it would take a few months, if not
years to explore and discover all that this magical country has to
offer.
