Good Evening all...
I give to you 2 videos that show Tulum. One from the ground and the other from the air (a cheesy advertisement, but it still does it justice).
As stated in yesterday's post, Tulum was a Mayan city conquered by Hernan Cortes in the 16th century. The name, Tulum, means walled city, but it's interesting that the name was more than likely not used to refer to the city in its prime. Unfortunately, no one really knows what the name of the city was as the majority of its inhabitants were murdered by the Spanish.
As you watch the videos, you'll notice the turquoise water - it is that blue - and the remarkable architecture. Not to mention all the iguanas. Lots and lots of iguanas.
Enjoy...
