Even
if practically every road didn't lead to MÉRIDA,
it would still be an inevitable stop. The "White
City", capital of the state of Yucatán,
is in every sense the leading town of the peninsula,
and remarkably calm and likeable for all its thousands
of visitors. Every street in the centre boasts a colonial
church or mansion, while the plazas are alive with market
stalls and free entertainment. You can live well here
and find good beaches within easy reach, but above all
it's the ideal base for excursions to the great Maya
sites of Uxmal and Chichén Itzá.
