Playa del Carmen
Description:
Playa del Carmen has one of the prettiest beaches on the coast and, despite its growing popularity, it has a small-town, laid-back feel to it which is part of the appeal. The offshore reef offers some spectacular diving, and less than an hour away by boat is the island of Cozumel, with some of the best diving in Mexico. There are numerous dive centres offering reef and cave diving in the limestone caverns along the coast. The small commercial town centre is packed with souvenir shops, trendy bars and cafes, restaurants, designer clothes shops and hotels, and has a vibrant nightlife that caters for the smaller beach settlements nearby so holidaymakers can enjoy the best of both worlds. It can get very overcrowded with day-trippers from Cancun, as well as cruise ship passengers. South of town, the expanding Playacar development caters mainly for package tourists, its beach packed with sunbathers and deckchairs, and lined with hotel complexes. There is also an 18-hole golf course.

Riviera Maya
Description:
The Riviera Maya, which is also sometimes referred to as the Mayan Riviera, stretches over nearly 100 miles of coastline with beautiful white-sand beaches and brilliant turquoise colored water just south of Cancun. This world-renowned paradise is home to mangroves and lagoons, ancient Mayan cities, ecological reserves and adventure parks, and the world's second largest coral reef.
The Riviera Maya runs along the Caribbean coastline of the state of Quintana Roo. It begins 20 miles south of Cancun in the town of Puerto Morelos and extends down to Punta Allen, a fishing village within the Sian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve. South of the Riviera Maya, you'll find the Costa Maya, an even more secluded and pristine area. Don't confuse the Mayan Riviera with the Mexican Riviera, which is the name given to Mexico's Pacific coastline.

SACRED TREE: CEIBA
In the beginning of the study of trees in Maya art, anyone might think that the conception of the Maya about the ceiba tree as the axis of the world, was based on a real tree, since the ceibe tree is the tallest of the tropical forest. But as we are about to study, this tree was an ideological figure, rather than a real tree, based on every structure (brances, flowers, trunk and roots) as we can appreciate in some crock and murals.
DEEPER INTO MEXICO'S YUCATAN
Beyond the tourist meccas of Cancún and Chichén Itzá, Mexico's eastern peninsula reveals itself--with striking architecture, elegant haciendas, and mysterious ruins that few outsiders have discovered
THE YUCATÁN'S MAYAN SPLENDOR
The Yucatán, which sits at the end of Mexico's curling peninsula, is often described as Mayan, and it was a vital cog in the old empire. The state is home to a proudly defiant people, who, despite the devastation of disease, resisted the Spanish long after other Mesoamerican cultures collapsed. Many people in the countryside continue to live off the land, cooking pibil in earthen pits.
