To many visitors, Mexico has come to represent the gateway
to Latin America whose settings manifest the combination of the
old and the new world. While the country boasts its rapidly
growing industrial capacity through modern high-elevated buildings
and international competition in several markets, a part of Mexico
still retains an archaic feel and features reminiscent of the time
when it was a hub of the ancient Amerindian culture and a Spanish
colony. It is not far from truth to say that one of the amazing
aspects about Mexico is how these discrepancies are interwoven to
intensify the national image. The Mexican culture is exotic,
colorful and exciting, and it is apparent everywhere even when
you're least aware of it - in the murals, the ancient artifacts,
the festivals, the songs, the food, the people's appearance, even
the cordial attitude and the slower pace of life than the country
across its northern border. The fabulously varied landscapes, the
fascinating fiestas, and the gorgeous, tourists-friendly resorts
serve to give travellers something to look out for every time they
turn the corner. In short, a visit to Mexico is ultimately an
unforgettable experience that one will want to relive over and
over.
