Tulum, Mexico

Tulum in Mexico is one of the places that you simply have to see in Mexico. The place is a center of attraction for tourists from all over the world who want to get to know the culture of the ancient Maya in addition to a relaxing beach vacation. No place is better suited for this, because in addition to the famous Temple of the Wind – which I will show you in more detail in a moment – one of the most significant ruin sites in the world, the Mayan site Chichén Itzá, to which I have already dedicated a separate article in my travel magazine, is located near Tulum. The special thing about the Maya site in Tulum is that it is located directly on the sea, which was rather unusual for the buildings of the high culture of that time. Due to exactly this location directly at the sea, Tulum was a very important center for trade for the Maya.
