Merida, also known as the
"White City" invites you to explore it. The colonial
and Frenchified architecture, Mayan language, Caribbean
atmosphere and original cuisine make Merida a unique
resort. Though the city still bears traces of its
pre-Hispanic history and the extravagance of the henequen
haciendas, it also offers sports in the open sea as
well as a magnificent example of environmental preservation,
with its large flamingo population.
The city has good shopping, fine restaurants, hotels,
and a couple of nice squares and markets, as well
as friendly people. But one of the main reason to
visit Merida is to take part in "Sundays in Merida",
when the streets of the city are closed to traffic,
and the downtown plaza is filled with food booths
and native craftspeople selling their wares at excellent
prices
