Chichen Itza's magnificent Kukulkan pyramid in the Yucatan peninsula.
Mexico has been in the holiday business successfully for many years with a sensational combination of diverse landscapes, three coasts hosting extensive beaches [Pacific, Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean's Mayan Riviera], spectacular ancient sites and especially pyramids, peculiar festivals, atmospheric colonial towns, dazzling sunshine, varied and delicious cuisine, haunting music, unusual drinks, chromatic coral, high surf and low prices. It's a winner!
Oaxaca Zocalo [city centre], for local people.
A few tourist essentials: A brief stop in Mexico City including a day out at the nearby Teotihuacan pyramid complex; a few days in a couple of calm, colonial towns such as Oaxaca or Merida in the company of some good tequila [and find out how Mexicans drink the stuff; hint, it's not via Margeritas!]; try to attend a wacky festival such as the Days of the Dead; take a trip to a Yucatan pyramid complex such as Uxmal or Chichen-Itza [very different from the massive but not so inspiring Teotihuacan]...
Playa del Carmen, one of the 'Maya Riviera' beaches, Yucatan, Mexico.
...and finally grab some beach time, perhaps with a snorkel or compressed-air tank thrown in the deep end.
Ayy! Arriba! Vamonos!
