Izamal



Gilded city of sunflower yellow, cradle of the genius prophet Zamna who gave his name and blessing to the peoples of the Mayab.

Izamal lives to the beat of three centuries:

  • Its pyramids reaching skywards from the backyards of the houses, witness to the grandeur of the Maya,
  • Its convent and fort with their shadows and mysteries, its charm derived from the silence of these majestic walls which hold the indelible mark of the Spaniards.
  • Its streets, buildings, small plazas, houses and churches, all in a visual rhythm, harmonious in a single color: Yellow


Together they define the present day reality of this Magical Town, where time has stood still, spellbound by the splendor of its history and the pride of its people.
