| Mérida, the vibrant capital of the Mexican state of Yucatán, has a rich Mayan and colonial heritage. The cityââ¬â¢s focal point is Plaza de la Independencia, bordered by the fortresslike Mérida Cathedral and white limestone Iglesia de la Tercera Orden, both colonial-era churches built using relics from ancient Mayan temples. The Casa de Montejo, a 16th-century mansion, is a landmark of colonial plateresque architecture. |
