Why Mérida’s New Creative Energy Makes It a Mexico Must-Visit | Vogue
"Strolling along this (in January, hot and humid) boulevard gives a taste of the city’s heyday; named after the Spanish conquistador who founded the city in 1542, it reflects the late-19th-century boom from exporting henequen—“green gold”—that by 1900 had brought prosperity, evident today in its tree-lined stretches and in the enormous art nouveau mansions that range from romantically crumbling to carefully preserved." - Claire Marie Healy
