Mérida, capitala statului Yucatán, este
considerat cel mai linistit si pasnic oras
mexican si astfel multe persoane se muta aici din
Ciudad de México, dar si din USA sau
Canada Mérida and the state of Yucatán have
traditionally been isolated from the rest of the
country by geography, creating a unique culture.
The conquistadors found the Mayan culture to be
incredibly resilient, and their attempts to
eradicate Mayan tradition, religion, and culture
had only moderate success. The surviving remnants
of the Mayan culture can be seen every day, in
speech, dress, and in both written and oral
histories
