Overview:
Mexico is a country bursting with life - the people are
vivacious, the landscape strewn with historical gems and the
nightlife tequila fuelled.
Mexico City, the capital, is teeming with activity and has a
population of more than 20 million people. It is also a great
starting point for learning more about the country's cultural
past - the Plaza de las Tres Culturas celebrates the three major
cultures that have shaped Mexico: there are Aztec ruins, the
17th-century colonial church of San Diego and several late
20th-century buildings.
Where the Caribbean Sea meets the Yucatan Peninsula, coral reefs
come alive, with sea creatures, great and small. Whilst the
desert is home to agave, the mother of all tequilas and the blue
plant has a lot to answer for in Acapulco and
Cancϊn, where
humans come ashore after a day in the surf to flirt in bars and
nightclubs.
