Campeche

Campeche

Campeche's location on the Gulf of Mexico, as well as the colonial buildings, churches and brightly colored buildings add to its charm. The broad waterfront boulevard provides the perfect place for sunset-watching. It's a great city for strolling around and soaking in the relaxed atmosphere.

Becán

In Mayan language Becán means "The Road of the Serpent". What makes Becán so interesting is that is an excellent example of Mayan fortification; it represented an important political and military control place, and is the only one that was walled. Although not usually included in the top ranking Mayan sites, Becán is the largest and most impressive in this area.
