The honeymoon is just as important as the wedding for every couple. Choosing the place where you will spend your honeymoon is as complicated as choosing the wedding dress.
Here we make things a little easier, and we mention some of the places in the state of Yucatan, where you will definitely spend an unforgettable honeymoon.
Uxmal
Uxmal is the favorite place for spouses to enjoy their first days as newlyweds. This is due to the fact that the Entity has a lot to offer: natural, colonial, archaeological sites and haciendas, culture, history, gastronomy that attract the attention of the new stream of travelers.
Just 1 and 10 minutes away from Merida, Uxmal is home to buildings full of stories such as the Pyramid of the Soothsayer, the Quadrangle of the Nuns and the House of the Pigeons.
Chichen Itza
Chichén Itzá is the most visited archaeological site in Yucatán. Every day it receives thousands of national and foreign visitors who come to enjoy the iconic buildings such as the Kukulcan Castle, the Snail and the Ball Game, among others.
Located 117.1 km from the city of Merida, Chichen Itza is in the town of Piste, in the municipality of Tinum. It can be reached by the Gulf Coast-Valladolid highway. It takes less than two hours to reach this archaeological site, considered one of the 7 Wonders of the Modern World since 2007.
Ik Kil Cenote
At 25 meters below the ground, is the Ik Kil cenote, which has been recognized for being the sacred blue cenote, which is guarded by the Temple of Kukulcan in Chichen Itza.
The cenote is located in the community of Pisté in the municipality of Tinum, Yucatán, has a diameter of 60 meters and a depth of 43 meters, which has been the perfect setting for Red Bull to hold a diving tournament. Another attraction of this body of water is the long roots that descend from the trees in the form of lianas, which seek contact with the water.

Rio Lagartos focuses on wildlife and all kinds of people can have fun here. There are professional tour guides who will surely make your visit enjoyable.
The biosphere is full of emblematic species of the locality with which you can coexist. You can take tours to see crocodiles, flamingos, as well as a variety of fish and birds. Not to mention the incredible landscapes and wetlands.
Merida
And last but not least, there is the capital of Yucatan: Merida. It is a city full of life, color and flavor. The plazas, historical sites, museums, as well as the gastronomy, will make your honeymoon memorable.
In addition, cultural activities are always taking place in the city and most of them are free of charge. Whether they are plays, dance performances, or events such as Mérida on Sunday.
