In Mexico there are many tourist attractions, but i just add one example of the many tourist
attractions in mexico. Cancn and the Mayan Riviera, Lying along a beautiful stretch of
coastline on the Gulf of Mexico are the resort destinations of Cancn, Playa del Carmen, and
the island of Cozumel, collectively known as the Mayan Riviera. This magnificent area on the
tip of the Yucatn Peninsula attracts some five million visitors each year, in the process
generating 20% or so of Mexico's total revenues. Despite these numbers, you're unlikely to
feel like a part of the crowd due to the Riviera's wide beaches and endless crystal clear
water. The area also boasts numerous fun activities such as dolphin and stingray swims,
snorkeling among reefs and tropical fish, as well as scuba diving in the world's largest
underwater museum, a spectacular collection of sculptures submerged at depths of up to
eight meters. Then, of course, there's the region's many ancient Mayan ruins, with some of
the closest sites within walking distance of the beaches, while the largest and most
impressive - Chichn Itz and Tulum - are just a few hours away.

Mexican cuisine is primarily a fusion of indigenous Mesoamerican cooking with European,

especially Spanish, elements added after the Spanish conquest of the Aztec Empire in the
16th century. The basic staples remain native foods such as corn, beans and chili peppers,
but the Europeans introduced a large number of other foods, the most important of which
were meat from domesticated animals (beef, pork, chicken, goat and sheep), dairy products
(especially cheese) and various herbs and lots of spices. Street food in Mexico, called
antojitos (literally "little cravings"), is prepared by street vendors and at small traditional
markets in Mexico. Most of them include corn as an ingredient.
