Beautiful and breathtaking... magical and scorching hot — but with a view like this over the sea, you put up with anything! 🌴 This place once pulsed with the life of a great civilization — that of the Maya. Then came humanity's endless hunger for power, along with Spanish greed for gold and riches, and all that's left now are the stones. 🤷♂️
Tulum is one of the last cities built by the Maya, reaching its peak between the 13th and 15th centuries. What makes it truly fascinating is that it's the only Maya city built right on the shore of the Caribbean Sea — and on top of that, it was once encircled by a defensive wall. 🧱
And since the Maya clearly had impeccable taste when it came to views, it's no surprise that Mexico's most beautiful beach lies right here. 😮🌊 Head out early and don't forget a hat and plenty of water — there's hardly any shade, and the sun doesn't go easy on you.
