18 Best Places to Visit in Mexico

Mexico is one of the most beautiful and diverse countries in Latin America, and deciding where exactly to travel is the first challenge when you’re putting together an itinerary.

There’s so much to see, and while places like Cancun and Tulum are undeniably beautiful and incredibly popular, they are really just the start of the best places to visit in Mexico.

Cancun is where you find Mexico’s best resorts and some of its most exceptional beaches. Lavish hotels and resorts line the coastline, and you’ll be endlessly entertained by the activities.

It’s one of the best places to visit in Mexico because while you have stunning beauty to match the likes of Cancun, it’s still nowhere near as busy or built up.
