A city of Cancun is a cosmopolitan and delightful city that has the happiness of possessing some of the most beautiful landscapes of the Mexican Caribbean: white sand beaches, turquoise waters, and tropical forests; each time, it boasts impressive tourist infrastructure and vast chains of luxury hotels. But did you know that 20 years ago, all of this practically did not exist? There were only a few shelters to stay in, and the Caribbean Sea and Nichupté Lagoon were almost pristine.

In recent years, modern development has come to Cancun to stay; however, this unparalleled Mayan city still preserves, amidst urban fury, natural postcards that captivate. Such is the case with the Kabah Urban Park. Located in the heart of the city, this Protected Natural Area has become the favorite lung of Cancun’s inhabitants, those who visit it to exercise, enjoy nature, and escape the daily whirlwind.

The most exotic nature in all its splendor emerges in a triangular area embraced by Av. Nichupté, Veredo Gomez, and Da Floresta. Just 5 km from the Hotel Zone, you can enjoy an unforgettable day outdoors.

Kabah Ecological Park is simply nature, history, and culture for your delight. In 2014, this Protected Natural Area celebrated 19 years of existence. Throughout this time, it has become the preferred spot for Cancun families to enjoy nature and physical activity.

What can you do at Kabah? First of all, enjoy relaxing walks surrounded by typical trees of Quintana Roo. If you prefer a more localized sport, there’s nothing better than visiting an outdoor gym. Prefer another more relaxed activity? Then do some flora and fauna observation. Moreover, did you know that this park is filled with ceibas? Yes, of course! The sacred tree of the Mayans, which connects Xibalba with Heaven. Its branches permit the opening of the 13 heavens. On the other hand, friendly dolphins welcome you by posing on a tree branch for you to admire.

If you prefer history and anthropology, there’s nothing better than enjoying a walk through the Casa Maya Museum, where you can appreciate photos of the city that show that a few years ago Cancun was not what it is today.

The Chiclero camp is another alternative for visitors to the park. What is it? Well, it is simply an artistic space where the most realistic representations of Mayan customs are held.

Lastly, you cannot leave the park without first having walked through the nursery and its exotic vegetable products that, thanks to an artificial irrigation system, always remain beautiful.

This park undoubtedly positions itself as the most important green area in the city of Cancun. Don’t miss the opportunity to learn about the natural, historical, and cultural wealth of the most touristic city in Quintana Roo!
