Oh! I really want to visit Merida and the surrounding area. This is fantastic! It actually reminds me of the Garden District in New Orleans with the big beautiful buildings and iron fences.
Ichcaanzihó, which means face of the infinite
^^ I love this. Like poetry rooted in a spiritual perspective of the land. I tend to seek out nature rather than urban scenes, but I do enjoy a walk down a beautiful street to admire architecture and to get a taste of culture.
Thanks for the virtual tour!
Merida is amazing, and I do really hope that you decide to come down at some point!
The lore of Mayan and Aztec culture is really magical and it is great to have that heritage myself. You should check what malinchismo is and how widespread it is among Mexicans :(
I hope we get to visit as well.
I looked up malinchismo. That seems complex. Colonialism sure messed up a lot of cultures, and the ancestral wounds run deep all over the world. For me, traveling helps me stay humble. ❤️
