Merida Vacation Guide
Merida is a medium sized city with all the advantages and disadvantages of a city. Great shopping, architecture, hotels, hostels, eateries, museums, international airport, a zoo and markets. The traffic is heavey, however it is no where near as demanding as Mexico City.
However, it is also the gateway to Yucatan, with the Mayan ruins of Uxmal and Chichen Itza close by and beaches a plenty in the neighbourhood. It is also a good starting point to travel westbound into Mexico, towards Palenque, San Cristobal de las Casas and onwards.
Although Merida is no Cancun in comparison to clubs or the night scene, there is a great feel to the city in terms of the people. People there are much more relaxed and friendly. There are many cheap places to stay and it is a good base to start your journey through Mexico.

At the end of the afternoon we took the bus to the city of Mérida, the capital of the state of Yucatán. What a difference that was! Although Mérida has a colonial centre as wel, but for the rest it is a big, busy, dirty, noisy, ugly city. Lots of traffic, lots of garbage in the streets and tons …

We are now leaving Merida and awaiting our next bus to Campeche. I think it will be about a 2-3 hour ride. Merida is a great city and while I am sad to leave the familiarity of it I am excited to see what else Mexico has to offer. We changed hostels yesterday and spent our last da…
