Mérida, Mexico, Is a Favorite Travel Destination Among Locals — How to Visit

"Speaking of Mayan history, the Yucatán peninsula is home to dozens of Mayan archaeological sites. The ancient city of Uxmal is the closest to Mérida and one of the region's most impressive. Its Pyramid of the Magician is simply breathtaking, rising like a white-stone beacon from a sea of lush, green jungle. Uxmal also happens to be less than an hour away from Mérida." - Travel + Leisure Editors
