Gulf of Mexico travel
It is the cradle of the first civilisation of Central America, where Cortés founded the legendary port of Veracruz. Here, you can discover magnificent, lesser-known Mesoamerican sites such as Xochicalco with its sculptures, Cacaxtla and its vibrant frescoes near Tlaxcala, or in the State of Puebla, Cholula and Cantona, one of the largest sites recently excavated. The highlight: El Tajín and its pyramid with 365 niches. On the culinary side, mole is a spicy dish made with chocolate. A genuine taste sensation. Tequila: the cultivation of agave is considered an intrinsic element of Mexican national identity.
The agave landscapes and the old industrial distilleries of Tequila have been designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
