The word "cenote" comes from the Mayan language and means "water cavern". Yucatan has approximately 3,000. Dzintup cenote is different from the rest because of its composition.

My suggestion
Dive in! There are vines dangling over the natural swimming pool so let your inner child loose and throw yourself into the refreshing water.

A tourist center with two magical cenotes.
My suggestion
To enjoy the place quietly, go there early in the morning, bus loads of tourists will arrive from 11 a.m.

One of Yucatán's most famous and perhaps most beautiful cenotes, just a few kilometres from Valladolid.
My suggestion
Many tour operators offer a combined trip to Chichen Itza and Cenote Dzitnup. However, opt instead to visit these two sites on your own: you'll enjoy the second of them much better if you aren't surrounded by hordes of noisy tourists.
Keen to discover the northern region of Mexico? The Nuevo León, as well as Coahuila are two regions housing cities to see, when going on a visit to the north of Mexico. In fact, Monterrey and Saltillo have several attractions.
The north and south are two different worlds, not only in terms of their landscape but also their economic structures. On this one strip of land fierce industrialization contrasts with a laid back tourist lifestyle.
I guarantee that hopping on the El Chepe train will be a unique adventure in the north-west of Mexico. As the kilometres go by, incredible landscapes will pass before your eyes, don't miss the train!
