Ruinas mayas de Tulum
Tulum was a walled city of the Mayan culture located in the State of Quintana Roo, in the southeast of Mexico, on the coast of the Caribbean Sea. It is currently a great tourist attraction of the Riviera Maya and next to it is the modern town of the same name, Tulum. The Mayan city is located within the Tulum National Park.
The archaeological site of Tulum is located on the eastern coast of the state of Quintana Roo, in the region known as the Riviera Maya.
Tulum is located 130 km south of Cancun and is considered by many to be the most beautiful. They are small but impressive, located above a small cliff 15 meters limiting the blue-turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea. The ruins of Tulum have one of the most beautiful beaches of the Riviera Maya.
The greatest attraction of Tulum is the combination of the imposing ruins with the amazing tonalities of the Caribbean Sea. Tulum in Mayan means “wall” since it is a walled city, one of the very few ancestral cities with this characteristic.
