Izamal Colonial & Magic Town

The City of Hills, located right in the middle of the peninsula, could be the oldest colonial city, within which stand five pyramids, the main one Kinich Kakmo, as well as the Rabbit, and Izamatul Kabul. Izamal is considered a colonial jewel; all the buildings are painted in yellow color. The main attraction is the Convent which was built on Mayan pyramids, using the stones of these for its construction. Izamal founder was Fray Diego de Landa, famous for burning mayan codexes.  (Tour lasts some 7 hours)
