and take the easy drive to the center of town. There you can enjoy Domingo en Merida, the lively Sunday market that takes

world version of the Champs d'Elysees. Or you can go in any day to visit churches, museums, shops, cafes, the zoo or just
stroll the colonial streets.
Mayan Archaeological
Zones
In every direction from Hacienda Santa Cruz
there are Mayan ruins of beauty and historical import that can easily be visited as a day trip. Uxmal is only 1 hour away,
a 40 minute drive will take you to Dzabilchaltun and in an hour and a half you'll be at Chichen Itza. In addition, smaller
sites such as Mayapan, Acanceh, Edzna, Kobah, Sayil, Labna, Xlapak, Oxkintok and others are all within an hour's drive.
Beaches and the
Gulf of Mexico About 30 minutes north of Merida is
Progreso, the largest of the not-very-large beach towns that dot the southern coast of the Gulf of Mexico. One of life's greatest
pleasures could be sitting under a palapa on one of those beaches, sipping a cold local beer and dipping fresh chips into
a big bowl of freshly-made guacamole. Or maybe it's rising early and taking a little boat out of Celestun to see the flocks
of flamingos. All these beach experiences and more are just a few minutes away from Hacienda Santa Cruz.
