Campeche, Mexico

Photography Tour in Campeche

The best photos of Campeche aren't at the obvious landmarks. The real magic is in the side streets, the reflected light, the unexpected angles that only reveal themselves to those exploring on foot.

Campeche is a UNESCO-listed fortified colonial city on Mexico's Gulf coast, where brightly painted buildings within massive defensive walls, baluartes (bastions), and a scenic Malecon create one of Mexico's most charming yet least-visited walking experiences.

Top Photography Tour Spots

•Malecon waterfront — a modern waterfront promenade along the Gulf of Mexico with sculptures, a light-and-sound show on the old walls, and sunset views from the sea gate

Hidden Photography Tour Gems

•Puerta de Tierra — the land gate with a sound and light show in the evenings telling the story of pirate attacks on the city
•Baluarte de la Soledad — a bastion housing an excellent museum of Maya stelae (carved stone monuments) from surrounding archaeological sites
