One-Day Tour of Valladolid, a Charming Mexican Town

🔶🔶🔶 In Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula, there is a small town exuding charm—Valladolid. Free from the hustle and bustle of big cities, it is filled with a rich history and unique local customs. It's perfect for a one-day trip to experience the beauty of its architecture and culture. 🎏My Itinerary: ■Morning: Zocalo, the heart of the town. The square boasts brightly colored buildings, and the murals on the exterior walls of the City Hall record the town's history. Then, visit the Cathedral of San Servacio (Catedral de San Servacio), a landmark building with a solemn white exterior and exquisite murals and sculptures inside. 🍽️Noon: Enjoy local cuisine at a restaurant near the square. The roasted pork shoulder and Mexican corn soup are quite good. ■Afternoon: Visit the private museum Casa de los Venados, which houses over 3,000 pieces of Mexican folk art, vividly showcasing the unique understanding of death in Mexican culture. The Church of the Company of Jesus (Iglesia de la Compañía de Jesús) features a typical Baroque style, with intricate carvings and exquisite decorations. Afterward, stroll along the town's colorful streets and browse the small shops for unique handicrafts. ■Evening: Return to the main square, find an open-air cafe, order a cup of Mexican coffee with a sweet soufflé, and enjoy the tranquility and beauty of the town at night. 🌟Tips: 1️⃣Prepare some cash, as some small shops do not accept cards. 2️⃣If time permits, you can also visit the nearby Suytun Cenote. 3️⃣The town is about 40 km from Chichen Itza, so you can choose to stay here.
