Haven't any of you seen THE RUINS? Go here and you'll end up either a plant, or shot through the skull by a local.

Take the time and visit Tulum. It is beautiful and amazing that ancient people could accomplish such a feat.

Tulum is a short day trip away from Cancun, and well worth the drive (or tour if you want). The Mayan ruins here are terrific, but only accessible from behind a rope for the more interesting portions. While it's unfortunate, it's also necessary to ensure that the ruins are here for more generations. That being said, there are still some places where you can stand in a 'room' or climb though some passageways and experience the ancient world up close and personal.

Excellent spot for anyone who likes to see ancient architecture. Good ruins and spots for picture-taking. Beach-side views and sea spray make it exotic.

First, my poor spasmatic back was barely up to the climb to top of what had to be a million steps. I wish I had not attempted that one part of the visit.

The buildings still have the paint from so long ago. This amazed me. I loved the feeling, the atmosphere of the place. The wall that surrounded the village and the architecture of the buildings still standing was breathless.

The first time I visited TULUM was back in '93 & it was like something out of a dream. Back then the ruins were not roped off but unfortunately they have had to do that because of the mass crowds that visit every year. This awesome sight has to be preserved this way. When going in, just hide your "small" camera so they dont charge you for the privilege to take some incredible pics of this Mayan marvel.

Tulum is beautiful due to it's coastal setting, but is less intact than Chichen Itza. For families with smaller children, this might be a better choice because it is closer to Cancun and is MUCH less humid. I think Chichen Itza is more worth your time if you can deal with the humidity.

Loved this place!! Right on the beach. the only bummer is that you'r not allowed to climb the ruins. When i went it was a little crowded. Would reccomend taking your bathing suit so you can take a swim in the ocean after visiting the ruins. One of the sites to see when visiting cancun.
