Tulum, Mexico: Rich in Ancient Ruins and Celebrities [2]
The Daily Mail’s Sarah Gordon recently spent holiday in Tulum, Mexico, and described the experience as a rich one, with ‘celebrities galore and amazing ruins.’
The list of celebrities that frequent Tulum, Mexico for holiday is long: Drew Barrymore is said to enjoy holidaying at Casa Magna, a luxurious beachside ecohotel.
While the Hollywood star enjoys soaking up the Mexico sun, actor Ryan Phillippe was recently spotted having lunch with Mamma Mia! star Amanda Seyfried at Coqui Coqui, a rustic spa hotel. Other actors and pop stars like George Clooney, Sienna Miller, Natalie Imbruglia and Kate Bosworth have all escaped their hectic Hollywood schedules with relaxing stays on beautiful white-sand beaches in Tulum, Mexico. Although beaches are a huge attraction, Mayan ruins are also major part of the beautiful landscape in Tulum, Mexico [3].
Even modern day Disney-style eco parks of Xel-Ha and Xcaret, which offer family-friendly activities such as snorkeling, swimming with dolphins and nature trails, draw heavily on Mayan myths and legends. Everywhere you look on the Yucatan Peninsula you will find sources of inspiration and remnants of Mayan culture that is interwoven into daily life here, such as the pyramids that emerge from a jungle canopy at Coba, or the clifftop ruins at the beach of Tulum.
