Mexico<\/strong> cannot be described in a single word. The overwhelming nature varies from deserts with huge cacti in the north, immense snow-capped volcanoes in the heart of the country and exotic jungle in the south. And then we haven’t even mentioned the thousands of miles of coastline, both on the wild Pacific Ocean and the balmy Caribbean Sea with its white beaches, crystal blue waters and coral reefs. Discover the ancient and living culture of the Maya<\/strong> or admire the many well-preserved colonial cities.<\/p>\n Witness unique natural phenomena such as the gray whale migration off Baja California<\/strong> or the monarch butterfly in central Mexico. Meet indigenous peoples such as the Tarahumara<\/strong> Indians at the Copper Ca\u00f1on<\/strong> , super barefoot athletes, or spend the night with the Lancandon Indians in the rainforest of the south. And did you know that Mexican cuisine has been declared a UNESCO Heritage Site? Shop at the local market and take a cooking class in Oaxaca<\/strong> . And then why not? Enjoy a good tequila and let the Mariachis<\/strong> sing to you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Colorful and musical<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":181850,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"country":[],"continent_category":[803,224],"class_list":["post-221513","countries","type-countries","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","continent_category-central-america","continent_category-latin-america"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/countries\/221513","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/countries"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/countries"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/181850"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=221513"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"country","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/country?post=221513"},{"taxonomy":"continent_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/continent_category?post=221513"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Whales and Indians<\/h4>\n
