History of the place and interesting facts
Cancún was planned and developed as a tourist destination by the Mexican government in the 1970s. Previously, it was a small, little-known fishing village on the Caribbean coast. With the support of the government and international investors, a modern infrastructure was created and Cancún quickly developed into one of Mexico's best-known tourist destinations.
The region not only offers beautiful beaches, but also a rich Mayan history, which can be felt at nearby archaeological sites such as Tulum and Chichén Itzá. Today, Cancún is a centre for tourism and business on the Riviera Maya.
Culture of Cancún
The culture in Cancún is a vibrant mix of modern Mexican lifestyle and the rich history of the Mayan civilisation. The proximity to important Mayan ruins such as Chichén Itzá and Tulum characterises the cultural heritage of the region. Traditional festivals, music and dance, such as the famous mariachi music and regional dances, are firmly anchored in society.
Mexican cuisine also plays a major role, with local specialities such as tacos, tamales and fresh seafood. Cancún thus combines modern life with deeply rooted traditions and a unique history.
