The Tulum Ruins, the most visited archeological site in the Americas, is located just a short walk from El Paraiso Hotel. Being one of the last Mayan cities to be abandoned, and said to be the finest example of Mayan architecture in the state of Quintana Roo, it is a must for every historically interested traveler. The Ruins, set on top of majestic cliffs dropping into the Caribbean ocean offers dramatic views. The name Tulum, was given by the explorers during the early 20th century. The Mayan word Tulum, translates into 'wall' or 'the walled city, and got its name referring to the 12 feet high walls, protecting three sides of the ancient city with the ocean being the forth protection. The city may formerly have been known as Zama, which means 'the city of dawn.' Thus its name, the Mayans living at Tulum is known to have worshiped the setting sun, not the rising.
Tulum served as a trading port and rose to prominence around 1200 AD, and it’s believed that around 500 people lived inside the walled city, those being mainly nobles, while the working community lived outside the walls. El Castillo – the largest of the ruins, is set at the top of the cliff, and served as a navigation aid. After being abandoned by the Mayans around 75 years after the arrival of the Spaniards, Tulum was still visited by Indians in the area for ceremonies, and also served as shelter for Indian refugees during the 'War of Castes'. A visit to the Mayan Ruins brings your back to in time. The amazing views, and well preserved temples breaths of magic and history.

Sian Kaan The Sian Kaan Biosphere just south of Tulum, is one of the hidden jewels on the Riviera Maya. Sian Kaan is Mayan and means 'Where the Sky is born', and when arriving to Sian Kaan it looks as if the sky is clearer and it is hard to distinguish where the ocean ends and the sky begins.

Cenotes One of the unique natural wonders of the Riviera Maya is the cenotes. Considered sacred by the Mayans, and connected in majestic systems of underground rivers and caves, they are believed to have been created when a meteor struck the Yucatan Peninsula millions of years ago. Over 6000 cenotes have been found in the Yucatan peninsula, and many more are still believed to be undiscovered. Cenote comes from the Mayan word 'Dzonot' which means 'hole filled with water'. A cenote is formed when the soft limestone collapse due to erosion and the roof of a cavern falls in. They were extremely important to the Mayans as this is where they got their drinking water, and were considered a holy place and the entrance to the underworld.
