We finally arrive to our destination in the Mexican jungle. It's hot, humid, and absolutely gorgeous. Walking into a different world, from a different time and culture when agriculture, religion and science meet is a magical experience. Did I mention it was hot & humid? This ancient Mayan city known as Tulum was at one time a thriving city of red stone set on a cliff by the aqua ocean surrounded by a city wall. There was only one gate that lead you through a narrow tunnel made of stone into this city. Palaces, temples, government buildings and family dwellings make up the architecture amidst the well planned gardens and pathways. Tulum was a very busy city of the past now enjoyed by tourists like my family and I. |
