Izamal easily achieved Magical Town status. With its omnipresent sun-bleached yellow, extraordinary convent,
and a living legacy of a huge Mayan ceremonial center, sacred "Itzamal", a name by which it has been known since pre-Columbian times, has magic to spare: the town generously shares it with all that have the fortune to walk among its streets and pyramids whether under the light of the sun or of the moon.
Izamal is monument of color, history and pride that can be felt in its streets and buildings. On Sundays you can enjoy "Izamal en Domingo" in the Parque Zamna form 9 AM to 3 PM. Art, music, and gastronomy are all around you.
Called the City of Hills and located right in the middle of the Yucatán Peninsula, Izamal may be the oldest city in the Yucatán. Izamal was conquered by the Spaniards, and the monks in their eagerness to convert the Indians to Catholicism gave the city its religious distinction. To this day, Izamal'a people are very devoted to the Immaculate Virgin.
