Valladolid

Valladolid is a colonial town in Yucatán, halfway between Cancun and Mérida and very close to Chichén Itzá and Ek Balam. Its main square, the San Servacio church and its colorful streets are a favorite stop on day trips.

Around town there are cenotes like Zací, right in the center, and old haciendas turned into restaurants. Many Chichén Itzá tours stop here for lunch.
