Highlights
Delve into the spirituality of the sacred and special of the Mayan world. This experience takes place in a type of round hut, which does not exceed one and a half meters in height and has a small opening that serves as a door. Inside, a bonfire is made where volcanic stones are heated, over which a cold infusion of herbs and medicinal ingredients is poured by candlelight. The heat increases as the ceremony progresses, until it reaches its maximum point, 40 degrees. The boiling of fresh water thrown over the burning stones creates steam that has benefits for the entire body. Temazcal promotes relaxation of the muscular system and relieves pain. For its part, sweat cleanses the body of toxins and is good for the respiratory system. The temazcal is not a simple steam bath but also an inner journey that helps us reconnect with ourselves for self-healing

About Mérida
Mérida, capital of Yucatán, is a Spanish colonial city of grand boulevards and mansions, a base for Maya ruins, cenotes and flamingo lagoons.
Francisco de Montejo the Younger founded Mérida in 1542 on the site of a Maya town, and stone from its temples went into the cathedral and houses. The Plaza Grande is the heart of the city, with the cathedral of San Ildefonso, the Governor's Palace, whose walls are covered by murals of Maya history, and the Casa de Montejo, with an ornate carved façade. The low colonial houses of the centre gave the city its nickname, the White City.
