Izamal

Izamal is a beautiful colonial city founded in the mid-sixteenth century on the remains of an ancient Mayan city. This place is known as "City of the Hills", recalling the covered pyramids that were there when the Spaniards arrived, as well as "The City of the Three Cultures" because it combines features of its pre-Hispanic past, of the colonial period and of the present time.

Currently, all painted yellow and white by the will of authorities and neighbors, it maintains an image of elegance and charm of past times that distinguish and define it with a stately air in the regional context. In its neatly stamped streets, horse-drawn carriages take visitors on a charming tour of its squares and parks and its historic suburbs.

At night, the city offers a singular experience, contemplating a starry celestial vault cut out by the profiles of its pyramids, temples and colonial mansions; shadows that seem to awaken from a centuries-old dream.
