Tour Itinerary
Izamal city is also known as the “City of the Three Cultures” due the presence of Pre-Columbian, Colonial and Contemporary architectural styles in its main buildings, witness of the rich history of the place.
We will begin our tour picking you up from your hotel in Merida to visit the center of Izamal, where the San Antonio de Padua convent is located. This Franciscan convent was built in 1553, atop of what it was the tallest pyramid in the city, Pap-Hol-Chac. You will learn more about the history and admire the colonial architecture of this place and its famous spacious atrium with 75 arches.
