After the city states of Chichén Itzá, Uxmal and Labná were founded in ca. 600 B.C. the Maya civilization, whose mysterious grandeur manifests itself best in the stone pyramid of El Castillo in Chichén Itzá, flourished for the very last time: every year when day and night are of the same length, light and shadow in the northern entrance interact and awaken the illusion of a wriggling snake. The cool, white sand of the beaches of Cancun is refreshing invitation this resort which was built in the 70's and is a paradise for all relaxation seekers. Ever since Jacques Cousteau's fascinating diving documentaries the Palancar Reef off the coast of Cozumel attracts divers from all over the world.
