Haciendas del Mundo Maya in MexicoPosteado el January 22, 2008 - Categorizado en Mexico Tourism Five historic haciendas in the Yucatan were the start, all carefully restored to become luxury hotels, says Carola Diez, director of Fundación Haciendas en el Mundo Maya. People in the Mayan villages surrounding the haciendas were employed to help, and ancient building techniques were revived through the effort. But, says Diez, the real work began in 2002 when Hurricane Isidore crashed across the Yucatan Peninsula. The foundation was set up, and the hotels’ Mexico City-based developers, Grupo Plan, started building housing in 26 communities — nearly 2,000 homes, says Diez. A political scientist, she started the foundation with Grupo Plan. Today the foundation provides libraries, a cooperative handicraft program to help Mayan women earn an income by selling embroidered goods at the haciendas and at boutiques in Merida, six health clinics and other resources for 16 communities. Some of the hotel spas employ ancient Mayan “bone healers” in treatments, in an effort to preserve the culture. The haciendas are operated by Starwood Hotels and Resorts (see hotels in Yucatan). If you go Merida is within driving distance of all the haciendas. The resorts, all different and restored: Haciendas Santa Rosa, San José, Temozon, Uayamon and Puerta Campeche. What to do: Activities vary, from visiting sea turtles to exploring Mayan ruins (it is always an interesting experience to try learning spanish advanced courses abroad). Rates: Starting room rates posted online vary from $214 per night for a double at Hacienda Santa Rosa to $315 at Uayamon and Puerta Campeche. Information: Also, “Casa Yucatan” by Joe P. Carr and Karen Witynski (Gibbs Smith, $24.95) is all about haciendas in this part of Mexico (see México resorts). Source:azstarnet.com The art and soul of MexicoPosteado el December 18, 2007 - Categorizado en Mexico Tourism The geography of Mexico is incredibly diverse. And the people of each region developed much of their own history due to a variety of influences, both natural and cultural. So it should be no surprise that Mexico’s artistic history is wildly eclectic. Still, there is a subtle consistency in outlook on life that binds it all together.Traditional arts and crafts such as pottery, silver work, lacquers, woodcrafts and masks have roots that go back to pre-Columbian times. Today, many of the motifs and themes are simply modern interpretations of these traditions. But they are prized because of the feeling, the soul, that the Mexican artist puts into each piece his hands create. After the arrival of the Spaniards, Mexican artists tended to follow the lead from Europe. But that changed in the 1930s, when such well-known artists as Diego Rivera, Jose Clemente Orozco and others began to paint unique murals and other works that brought together the styles of the Old World and the new and portrayed distinctly Mexican themes. Today, Mexico’s fine art continues to identify itself with traditional national themes, colors and outlooks. And it delights with its playful spirit, connection to history and challenge to conventional reality.Source:chinapost.com.tw Hostels in Campeche: Hotel CastelmarPosteado el September 26, 2007 - Categorizado en Hostels, Mexico Campeche Tourism, Mexico Tourism
The building that houses our hotel dates back to 1880.It was initially built to be used as army barracks, but then became one of the first hotels in Campeche City, and remained as such for almost a century. In 2004, its new owners started remodeling it completely, although they respected the original architecture, floors, ceilings, patio, hallways and decoration, without neglecting modern amenities such as wireless internet, direct dial telephone, satellite TV, swimming pool and air conditioning, among others.Source:hostelworld.com
