The original site of Tulum, a walled city (Tulum means “walled city” in Mayan), has become a must-see for travelers looking to connect with the physical history of the Mayan civilization. Due to its excellent location overlooking the turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea and the superb preservation of its buildings and mural paintings, Tulum’s Archaeological Site is stands out amongst the ruins that can be found along the coast of Quintana Roo (and just a 15-minute bike ride from Kimpton Aluna Resort Tulum). But these aren’t the only Mayan ruins that visitors may want to seek out during their Tulum stay.
