Landscape

From the sweeping Pacific coasts at the western side, the timeless appeal of the Yucatan at the east, and several interior natural charms, dramatic mountains, and lush vegetations – Mexico’s landscape is the stuff of magic and beauty. This has provided everyone an endless adventure that gives holidaymakers and even Travel YouTubers countless reasons to visit and stay at any of Mexico’s vibrant beach towns and cities.

The pristine blues and white sands of the many beaches that are speckled across the country’s 10,000 km-coast are its claims to fame. The Yucatan’s Caribbean charm has amassed a huge influx of tourists for years making Cancun and all its little sister cities and towns like Playa Del Carmen and Tulum the go-to options on this side of the country. Los Cabos, and Puerto Vallarta, claim the Pacific coasts, with a whole slew of pueblos magias in between, the Pacific side gives an even better twist to Mexico’s already jampacked landscape.

Not to mention, the country’s diverse interior also makes up a huge sum of its outdoor appeal. From the ridged mountains of Monterrey to the snowcapped smoking twin peaks of Popocatepetl, just outside of Mexico City. Mexico is gifted with both land and water wonders that it’s almost as if it’s favored by Mother Nature herself.
