Built as a tourism development spot in the northeast corner of the Mexican Caribbean, Cancún is known as Mexico’s most well-known resort. The pristine white beaches spanning 21 kilometres are responsible for the city to be built around the tourism industry like hotels and resorts. The city is conceived as a gateway to the Mayan world, which is home to archaeological wonders of the Mayan times. A few of the sites include the Chichen Itza, an ancient Mayan city with the stepped pyramid – El Castillo, San Miguelito- a significant trade and residential center, El Rey, a major trade and business center and many other sites that are taken care of by the archaeological department.
Apart from the tourism zone on the island, Cancún’s mainland or downtown area is bustled with mainly residential blocks. Whereas the other sectors apart from the tourism zone are now under various stages of development.
