Not that culturally akin with the US and Canada, too big to be considered part of Central America, and bordered by large water bodies, Mexico is fascinatingly, uniquely situated. See its hidden treasures and rest well in a HotelTravel.com room.











Sensuous and seductive, Mexico is a traveller’s paradise packed with paradoxes. From its sleepy colonial towns to ritzy resorts, ancient ruins to modern cities, lush jungle to vast deserts and deserted beaches, Mexico offers a wealth of discovery for any visitor.
Mexico is a land of surprise and contrast and holds infinite rewards for those who come with an open mind. Rich in remnants of ancient civilisations, Mexico is also a modern developing nation where temples and cathedrals contrast with futuristic skyscrapers and posh beach resorts.
Its vast and varied landscape is home to over 200,000 different species, comprising ten per cent of the world’s biodiversity. Its dense jungles are home to the legendary jaguar, while colourful coral reefs swarm with life at the convergence of the Caribbean Sea and the Yucatan Peninsula. The Pacific coast draws enormous elephant seals and magnificent grey whales, who come to mate and give birth in Mexico’s warm waters.
Mexico’s people are great lovers of free time and socialising, putting friends and family before anything else. Festivals are celebrated with passion, and the village markets are lively and colourful. The mother, giver of life, is honoured and respected, and all children, whether belonging to locals or visitors, are doted upon.
The biggest mass of teeming life in all of Mexico is its capital Mexico City, where 20 million people interact together in work and play. Even in this sprawling city there are hidden pockets of calm, exquisite art, fine restaurants, Baroque architecture, and world-class entertainment. Here in the Plaza de las Tres Culturas the three major cultures that have formed Mexico are celebrated: there are Aztec ruins, the 17th-century colonial church of San Diego and several late 20th-century buildings. Let’s not forget Day of the Dead, a wild yet sacred celebration and remembrance of the dearly departed.
A nation of ethnic diversity, Mexico’s constitution defines the country to be a multicultural nation. Its culture reflects the complexity of the country's history through the blending of pre-Hispanic civilizations and the culture of Spain.
Whether you come to Mexico to experience the vivacious nightlife, beautiful beaches, epic surf, colonial towns, lively markets, friendly people or mouth-watering cuisine, Mexico will deliver exactly what you are looking for.
