Mexico: Exploring Maya culture
The peninsula of Yucatan offers an ideal mix of Maya culture. The Maya culture left
an enormous cultural legacy, developing a unique architecture, the design of jewellery and ceramics, the construction of an advanced written language, and an amazing knowledge
of mathematics and astronomy. For a truly Mexican experience, the city of San Cristóbal
de las Casas in Chiapas offer a view of the indigenous Mayan peoples in a beautiful colonial city. Archaeological sites in Mexico are vast; one should keep in mind Teotihuacan, Chichen Itza, Palenque, El Tajin and Monte Alban among just a few.
