Cancun : holiday resort in the Yucatan peninsula in Mexico. Although it is only one long beach, Cancun has grown from a tiny jungle village into one of the world's best-known holiday resorts. Click the picture to see my guide in photos of Cancun. |
 |
Chichen Itza : this enormous complex of Mayan ruins is one of the largest in Mexico. It was, in its time of grandeur (between 800 and 1200 A.D.), the centre of political, religious and military power in the Yucatan. Click the picture to see my guide in photos of Chichen Itza. |
 |
Coba : inland from Tulum and nestled in the dense jungle of the Yucatan is Coba, a once grand city. Covering 25 square kilometers, it is one of the largest Mayan cities in existence. Click the picture to see my guide in photos of Coba. |
 |
Isla Mujeres : only 25 minutes boat ride from Cancun, Isla Mujeres is a peaceful place to escape the mega resorts and noisy clubs. There is nice diving to be done there! Click the picture to see my guide in photos of Isla Mujeres. |
 |
Tulum : most visited of the Maya sites in the Yucatan. Although it was built around 1200 AD as the Mayan civilization declined and lacks the elegance of earlier structures (e.g. Chichen Itza), it claims the most privileged panorama. Click the picture to see my guide in photos of Tulum. |
Mexico Pictures : features a multitude of opposing identities: desert landscapes, snow-capped volcanoes, ancient ruins, teeming industrialised cities, old colonial towns, big resorts, lonely beaches and an impressive collection of flora and fauna. Choose in the gallery below a place to see the photos and pictures I took in Mexico. You can use these photos as a guide to Mexico and see some pictures of Cancun, Chichen Itza, Coba, Isla Mujeres and Tulum. Most photos taken with a Canon EOS 300D (for more information on the material I have been using, follow the link «Lenses» below). At the bottom of the page you can also find a world map showing where Cancun is. Finally at the top of the page you can find a link to the conditions for using the photos and pictures for free on benoa.net and a link to my photoblog. Bon Voyage!
