The official blog for Google Maps
Take your dream trip to Mexico with Google Maps
September 15, 2014
The famed author
Gabriel García Márquez
once said: "In Mexico, surrealism runs through the streets. Surrealism comes from the reality of Latin America.” So today, we invite you to embark on a dreamlike journey of more than 60 new sites that take you through
Mexico’s culture and geography
with Street View. These are places where ancient civilizations merge with modern-day structures and lush jungles, and where remote deserts and beaches stretch neverending towards the horizon.
No, your eyes aren’t playing tricks on you; the magic is real in places like
Holbox
, where big resorts and tourist traps seem to be a world away. You can leave your worries behind and
make new friends
while snorkeling the clear, blue waters.
Holbox, Quintana Roo
Mexico has a rich heritage of religion and tradition. Explore the country’s sacred sites, like the
Catedral de Merida
, one of the oldest cathedrals in North America, and the remains of the
Museo Ex Convento de Tepoztlán
, which was first built for the Dominican friars in 1555.

As we approach the end of our virtual tour, it’s a good time to take a look at the iconic monumental clock in
Pachuca, Hidalgo
. Close to Mexico City, this former mining town witnessed the country’s history from the pre-Hispanic empire to today’s modern republic.

sandalias
, grab your digital sunglasses, and discover Mexico’s history with Street View on Google Maps!
