What to expect
Plaza Grande
5m
Start in the heart of Mérida, the plaza where the city was born in fifteen fifty-two, on the ruins of the ancient Mayan city of T’Hó. Your audio guide tells you what these stones hid before the Spanish and why this square remains the meeting point of the meridians.
Museo Casa Montejo
5m · Admission ticket included
In front of you, one of Mexico's most controversial facades. Look closely at the figures carved at the entrance: what are those soldiers standing on? The story behind this house will surprise you.
Cathedral de Merida
5m
One of the oldest cathedrals in the American continent. What few people know: its walls hold a secret of Mayan origin. Discover where these stones really came from and the legend of a Christ who survived the fire. If it is open, it is worth going to see it.
El Palacio de Gobierno
5m · Admission ticket included
In front of the square is the Government Palace. Enter free to admire its impressive murals, which tell the entire history of Yucatán in enormous paintings. Don't miss them: they are some of the most beautiful things in Mérida.
Parque Hidalgo
5m
A small park full of cafes, perfect for a break. But the man in the statue has a story that few tourists know. Sit down, listen and discover who it was.
Iglesia de Jesus
5m
Built by the Jesuits, this church has details that almost no one notices when passing by. Your audio guide tells you exactly where to look, and why its builders had to leave overnight.
Teatro Peon Contreras
5m · Admission ticket included
A theater worthy of Europe in the middle of Yucatán. How did so much luxury get here in the early twentieth century? The answer is linked to a plant that made the landowners in the region rich.
Parque de Santa Lucia

Finish in one of the most charming parks in Mérida. Look at their benches: they have a very special shape, designed for lovers. Discover its history and the atmosphere this park has when night falls.
