The Yucatan peninsula is one of Mexico's most intriguing regions, due to its ecological, historical, cultural and artistic wonders. It is also a land of sunshine and the doorway to the mysterious and fascinating Mayan World.

Few places in the world have the natural blessings of the Mexican Caribbean, and as if that wasn't enough, the entire region is enhanced by the legacy of the Mayan culture. If we add the traditional hospitality of our country and the benefits of the most modern tourist industry infrastructure, the result is a combination of factors that make Cancun an incomparable vacation spot.

Cancun has crystalline white beaches, turquoise waters, emerald jungle, magnificent coral reefs and mysterious Mayan temples. It is a blend of the old and the new, the traditional and the modern. Beaches decorated with old Mayan ruins side by side with the most luxury hotels, ultramodern discotheques and beautiful shops. Cancun is an extraordinary mix of many special attractions. The continuing success of this extraordinary resort can be illustrated by the figure of over three million foreign tourists visiting it annually.

Cancun, with a population of nearly 800,000, is located in the Yucatan Peninsula, state of Quintana Roo, MEXICO, and it is one of the most beautiful places on earth. Its precious, clean sand beaches, the crystal clear Caribbean Sea and all year round pleasant temperature (year average of 28º C) will surely make it a perfect venue to host this important event.

All this and much more is why Cancun was named in 2000 as the Best City in Latin America by the prestigious magazine "Travel & Leisure".
