About Merida

Despite its colorful architecture, reflecting both Spanish colonial and Mayan influences, Merida is also referred to as the White City, though the exact origins of this peculiar nickname remain a mystery. Some say it might be due to the white limestone in the city’s architecture, while others believe it’s due to Merida’s cleanliness. Back in 2019, Merida was recognized as the most peaceful and safest city in Mexico, making it the perfect destination for its visitors.

### A brief history of Merida The charming colonial city we know today is one of the oldest inhabited cities on the continent. Initially, the city was known as T'Hó, meaning 'five hills,' a reference to its five towering pyramids. Ancient Merida was an important center for the Mayan civilization until Spanish conquistador Francisco de Montejo y León founded a new city, Merida. The stones from the pyramids were used to construct the new buildings, marking the beginning of the colonial architectural style. Moving forward to the 20th century, Merida became one of Mexico's most important commercial hubs, which it still is today, thanks to its strategic location. ### Modern-day Merida Despite the colonization, the Mayan culture remains present in Merida. From the continued use of the Mayan language to the flavors of traditional cuisine and the arts and crafts produced by indigenous artisans, Merida's cultural heritage reflects the city’s identity to this day. Each year, Merida attracts travel enthusiasts, drawn not only to its fascinating local culture and architecture but also to its strategic location near other popular destinations. Merida serves as a bridge to other nearby attractions, such as cenotes (stunning natural sinkholes), the exotic beaches along the Gulf of Mexico, and the famous Chichen Itza.

From Tulum to Merida: travel tips

To ensure everything runs like clockwork, here are a few tips to make your drive from Tulum to Merida flawless.

### Be prepared for a hot weather Merida is characterized by its warm temperatures year-round, especially from May to October. That's why we suggest you bring appropriate clothing, consume water, and use sunscreen. Try to limit outdoor activities during the peak sun hours or visit nearby places, such as cenotes, to cool down. ### Pre-book accommodations and attractions If you book in advance, you will not only find accommodation for a better price but also have more options, as Merida is a popular destination and can fill up fairly quickly. Ensure that you also book in advance the most visited attractions, even those near Merida, such as Chichen Itza and the archaeological site of Uxmal. ### Pick up some basic Spanish phrases As you probably noticed while still in Tulum, Mexicans are known for their warmth and friendliness, and the locals in Merida are no exception. While Yucatec Maya is spoken in the city, Spanish is the primary language. To connect with the local community, consider learning a few basic Spanish phrases. Not only will you brighten the day of Meridians, but you'll also enhance your experience by engaging more deeply with the local culture. Here are some phrases that you will find handy: Hola(hello) Gracias (thank you) Por favor (please) ¿Cuánto cuesta? (How much does it cost?) ¿Dónde está…? (Where is…?) No hablo español (I don’t speak Spanish) Despite all these phrases being appreciated by the locals, they will be happy even if you learn the first two!
