Palenque
If it is culture that you are after then a visit to Palenque (500 miles south east of Mexico City) is a must. The remains of this ancient Mayan city offers preserved bas reliefs (many of which still retain their original colours), sculptures, and a myriad of temples. If there is an explorer in your soul, it is believed that 905 of this wonderland is still undiscovered in the jungle.
