Mérida
Mérida, founded in 1542 on the Mayan city of T'Hó, is an elegant colonial city known as the White City for its limestone buildings. The Paseo de Montejo, inspired by the Champs-Élysées, is flanked by mansions from the 19th-century henequen boom. The city is the gateway to Chichén Itzá, Uxmal, and the Puuc Route of Mayan sites. Yucatecan gastronomy, influenced by Mayan and European cuisine, is considered one of Mexico's most distinctive. Every evening there are free cultural events in different plazas, from vaquerías to serenades and Yucatecan jarana performances.
