Notes Actions
Barrios Mágicos are neighborhoods in Mexican cities which have rich patrimonial value and tourist potential, characterized by their singularity, identity, authenticity, traditions, architecture, history, gastronomy, and vibrant cultural scenes.

There are three Barrios Mágicos in Merida at this time - La Ermita, San Sebastián and Xcalachén. These neighborhoods are next to one another, but are about a 2.5km walk from where we’re staying, so we have to walk quite a ways just to start our walk. We ended up walking about 25% of the Barrios Mágicos today and hopefully we’ll make it out to do a lot more before we leave.
This evening we walked over to look at the place we didn’t stay. It was quite a ways west of where we are and would have been a significant hike from the Historico Centro. I’m really glad that we are where we are. The place we didn’t stay was canceled last minute because the host sold the property.
