PUEBLA - 12 to 15 September

As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Puebla showcases some of Mexico's best preserved colonial buildings and churches, with elaborately decorated facades and ornate interiors. The highlight is Puebla Cathedral, considered one of the most beautiful cathedrals in Latin America, blending baroque, Renaissance, and neoclassical styles.

In the heart of Puebla's historic colonial centre lies a modern architectural marvel - the Baroque Museum designed by renowned Japanese architect, Toyo Ito. His contemporary concrete and steel structure stands in fascinating contrast to the historic 17th and 18th century architecture surrounding it.

MERIDA & VALLADOLID - 15 to 19 September

Merida's historic downtown district is the largest in Mexico, with over 4,000 preserved colonial buildings occupying over 25 square kilomtres. Strolling down the streets of the city centre is like stepping back through four centuries of shifting architectural styles and influences.

Indigenous Mayan, Spanish Colonial, French Neoclassical, Dutch, British, Art Nouveau, and Art Deco inspirations mingle harmoniously throughout Merida's architecture. Ornately carved limestone facades with arched entryways open into stunning inner courtyards. Intricate tilework and ironwork detailing abound. Discover the true heart of this city frozen in time.

TULUM - 19 to 22 September

The Mayans were master builders who crafted intricate pyramids, palaces, and temples without the use of metal tools, wheels, or even pack animals. Their cities were power centres with structures designed for defense, ceremony, society, and even entertainment through acoustic tricks. 

Let your imagination wander at Uxmal where you'll explore the ornate Puuc style buildings and layout aligned with astronomy. Marvel at Chichen Itza's grandeur, including El Castillo's acoustic resonance. Discover Ek Balam's winged temple gateway and wonder at the untold stories in its artwork.

The tour culminates in Tulum, where the ancient world collides with the azure embrace of the Caribbean. Here, the majesty of Mayan architecture, including the iconic God of Windows Temple, stands as a testament to the ingenuity and foresight of an ancient civilisation, offering lessons in the harmony between construction and nature.
