The best places to visit in Mexico: 6 amazing gems (that aren’t Cancun)
Here are the cities in Mexico you should visit to get off the beaten path
The calavera is a popular symbol in Mexico.

From its great weather and its delicious food to its inviting culture and a whole lot more, there has never been any shortage of reasons for visiting Mexico. During the pandemic, however, the country’s popularity surged among American and Canadian travelers seeking a continental destination they could reach with relatively little difficulty. The thing is, while many are familiar with hotspot tourist magnets like Mexico City, Cancun, Tulum, or Puerto Vallarta, few visitors know where to best wander off the beaten path. With this in mind, we’ve decided to take a look at a few of Mexico’s smaller cities that get less attention but offer plenty of solid reasons to visit. If you're looking for the best places to visit in Mexico, consider these incredible locales.

Book your plans with confidence, knowing that these are well-proven recommendations. I’ve spent a total of roughly five years living and traveling in Mexico, including the vast majority of the past three years. I’ve road-tripped throughout some two-thirds of the country and know each of these cities firsthand, and I can attest that these places are exceptional.
