About Tulum

Tulum: Maya-Ruinen auf der Klippe über dem türkisfarbenen Meer, weiße Strände, Dschungel-Cenoten und ein entspanntes Bohème-Städtchen.

Die Ruinen von Tulum, einem ummauerten Maya-Hafen, stehen auf einer Kalksteinklippe über der Karibik, mit El Castillo über einer kleinen Bucht aus weißem Sand. Die Kulisse gehört zu den meistfotografierten Mexikos, und die Stätte ist früh am Morgen am schönsten, bevor die Hitze steigt.
