Park
Parque de los Hidalgos is a small, charming park located in the heart of Merida. It offers a green space for relaxation and shade from the sun with numerous benches hidden under palm and other trees. Adjacent to the park is Rectoria El Jesus Tercera Orden, a large Catholic church. The park hosts bawdy comedy acts at 11:30 am and lively music performances in the evening.
This is one of my favorite parks in Merida. Park is pretty small but with a Catedral de Mérida right next to it, it's a spot for a perfect pictures. You will find many people sitting there on the benches drinking coffees (there are various cafes in the park), enjoying the views and relaxing. Definitely don't miss this place while in Mérida!

Lived and worked in Merida 10 months in mid 70s This was my. Main hangout in the evening. Made a lot of awesome friends here. It saddened me to leave. I really miss those people.😓 My intentions were to return to live but couldn't make it back.

A nice little park right around shops and restaurants. There are other historical landmarks close by, like the church across the street. It is a bustling area with a great atmosphere. It's a nice place to have a seat and take in the charm of Merida.

Great park with many benches. This area is covered by free wifi in Mérida. Restaurants and cafes are nearby. It is a good place to stop in the hot weather. The location is easy to find by walking straight after the main cathedral. The park is facing a church.

A charming little park located between the Rectory of Jesus Church and the main plaza. There are a few restaurants, a coffee shop, a couple of old hotels, a theater, and an ancient church constructed from stones taken from a dismantled Mayan pyramid that stood on this site.
Bobby C — Google review
Interesting park. Even though it is colloquially known as Parque Hidalgo, that apparently isn’t its official name. The Hidalgo soldiers used to train here in the past, and this is where the name comes from. The parque is simple and not that big, but it is surrounded by a few very historically significant buildings - the Jesuit built church, the first gender-mixed club in Mexico, and the region’s first hotel.

The Catedral de San Ildefonso, also known as the Merida Cathedral, is a 16th-century cathedral with Renaissance architecture. It was partially constructed using stones from Mayan ruins. The cathedral is located in the main zocalo, surrounded by well-preserved 16th-century mansions and is one of the oldest churches in Latin America.
If history is your thing, then this place is for you. If architecture is your thing, then this 0lace is for you. If you need to pray, you should come try it here. It's beautiful, the people were wonderful, and it just leaves you in awe of what people can be capable of.

Beautiful site in Merida. Must see for anyone. Looking at it from Picheta is amazing as well. Also I recommend viewing it day and night because it looks amazing in different kinds of ways. Also research the history as it’s pretty interesting.
Benjamin B — Google review
Architecturally impressive, this cathedral houses none of the original art. Either stripped during the Mexican Revolution, or removed to prevent theft, the cathedral is a less decorative experience than the frilly, gilded majesty of the ones we saw in Mexico City, Puebla, and Oaxaca. Saturday nights there is a Mayan pelota demonstration in front of the Cathedral. It is a fitting location, since the stone walls of the Catedral de San Ildefonso are also the last remnants of the Mayan Temple that stood on the same spot. If you are visiting the archeological sites in the area, the ball game demonstration and ceremony will add significantly to your overall understanding and experience.

Fascinating cathedral, especially during the Christmas season. I love the light show they project onto the cathedral, as well as all the events that take place during this time. The church is free of charge. I believe the projection only happens during the weekend.

Desiré Z — Google review
The oldest Catholic Cathedral and Church in North America. It was amazing to go to Mass here and experience history. Imagining the millions of pilgrims and Catholics that have worshipped here over centuries. The authentic structure gives the feeling of traveling through time and being in an International landmark is something special. Located directly in Central Mérida Yucatan Mexico across from the plaza is the iconic landmark. The Church is very peaceful and popular for tourists. But, it still functions as a Catholic Church with Masses held daily. This cultural heritage center is where Catholics formed their first Cathedral in North America. Then branching out to form missions throughout North, Central, and South America. You can feel the connection between the past and the present in a Holy Site. Then enjoy the food, shopping, and the cultural park directly across the street. A great place for family to visit and also fellowship in Christ!

The Palacio de Gobierno del Estado de Yucatán, also known as the Government Palace, is a striking historical building located in the heart of Merida, Mexico. Constructed in 1892, it serves as the executive government offices for the state of Yucatan. The pastel green facade of this architectural gem stands out at the intersection of Calle 60 and 61.
This is a surprisingly great building with outstanding large format murals detailing the artist’s impression of the history of the Yucatan. We didn’t pay an entry fee, and so it’s a great free visit of a museum in Merida (there are a few). We visited with our family, and the kids (13 and 11), thought it was really interesting. Each of the murals also had descriptions discussing what they were about in Spanish, and English. Recommend this place.

We had a great time during our visit here. It was a historical building in the city center of Merida where we could see murals, artworks, and museum. It was a free entry during my visit. In October, the city is preparing for a carnival. We could see many beautiful decorations inside the city. We managed to see local performances in the other part of the street.

Merida is the capital of Yucatan state and the biggest city of the entire peninsula. This elegant green edifice is the area's government seat, standing on the main Plaza Grande square. In normal times you can enter it to admire great murals in the arched courtyard. They remind on Diego Rivera murals in Mexico city's City Hall, but here in Merida, Fernando Pacheco is responsible for them. Murals depict Spanish invasion of Yucatan and enslaving and destroying Mayan culture.

A beautiful building right around the corner from the Cathedral. The building is open to the public with no admission charge. Exceptional murals on the walls and especially in the expansive rooms on the second floor. The building is clean and very well cared for. Definitely worth a visit if you are in this area.

Park
Parque de Santa Lucía, located in central Merida, is a vibrant hub of cultural and nightlife activities. The park hosts the Yucatecan Serenade, an open-air dance with live music that has been a weekly tradition since 1965. On Friday and Saturday nights, locals gather in the square for salsa dancing. While the area can get noisy at times, it's a great spot for those looking to immerse themselves in Merida's lively bar and cantina scene.
Nice place to go and have something to eat. Streets are full of shops on the way. Locals are using the area for different celebrations / festivals so worth popping around specially when you hear music
Orsolya N — Google review
By the work "park" I imagine a lot of greenery, trees and benches to relax on, but there is almost none of that in this park. It's more like a small square with three palm trees and restaurants. What's interesting here are two huge white benches (or more like chairs) that you can sit on if you are able to climb them. However, if you are in luck, you may see the Yucatecan Serenade - an open-air dance with live music - taking place in this park every week. I imagine this event is what makes this park interesting.
Cyntia P — Google review
City park in the historic center of the city. The park has GINORMOUSgossip chairs, the white chairs that face opposite directions for lovers to kiss or gossip to share information. The park is surrounded by restaurants. Once a week there is a city sponsored concert in the park. Get there early to sign a seat for the singing and dancing. The park is easy to get two of you are visiting in the center or the historic center of the city, or a quick Uber ride from the outside of the center. This is a lovely park, but it is just a park. The oldest park in the city of Merida

Beautiful park just blocks from centro. If you're staying on the north side, you can walk past this park every time you're heading to the city center. The park is shaded by beautiful trees, and has 4 restaurants with outdoor seating to relax in the shade. Tucked in the corner is Ki'Xocolatl - authentic Yucatan chocolate that is a must visit, and the perfect place to get some gifts for friends and family when you get back home. Also Grab a few photos at the Sillas gigantes (giant kissing chairs) or wait to get those down in the centro by the Merida sign. One of the favorite things we did was the free walking tour with Gabriel that starts here. This is a great way to see the highlights of the city, the history and a few of Gabriel's favorite places all in 2 hours. Please take my word for it - do this on your first day and you'll feel like you got the insider tour - https://www.freewalkingtourmerida.mx/. Lastly, and maybe most importantly, Yucatecan Serenade, an open-air dance with live music, has been held weekly on Thursday night at 9:00 pm since 1965 right here (now you know what the stadium bench seating is for). Please take my word for it... this is the place to be on Thursday. Locals and travelers alike attend this event and it is always amazing and it is always busy. Get there at 8:00 pm (or earlier) to get a seat at this free event, because it is the place to be! The regional music was played by a full band, and some of the songs were accompanied by traditional dancers. You don't want to miss this on your visit!
Eric M — Google review
This park is full of joy. I went there for the Thursday local dance show which starts at 9 p.m.. The people there are in a really good mood, they are chilling, talking, laughing and just enjoying their time there. Come around 8 to 8.30, find a nice spot to sit. Bring snacks or buy some of the many locals selling snacks, water, coke or buy some food from the food stalls or many restaurants.

La Chaya Maya is a highly recommended and unpretentious restaurant located in the heart of the city. It offers classic Yucatecan dishes at reasonable prices, making it a favorite among tourists and culinary enthusiasts.
I gotta say, this place has got it all when it comes to local cuisine, Mexican atmosphere, fresh tortillas made on the spot and friendly service. We enjoyed the food very much and the drinks too. The tortillas are prepared by a person sitting inside the restaurant by the tables. The service was attentive and friendly. We’d go back! Highlights: cochinita pibil and tamales Not our fave: recado and the people outside trying to lure you in, makes it seem a little shady I must say.

What a great restaurant. Welcoming staff, delicious food, pleasant family friendly atmosphere. We have the cochinita pibil and poc chuc. Both were tender, juicy and delicious.

After all the amazing reviews and coverage this place gets, we thought we had to try it for ourselves and went to two of their locations within a few days. While the atmosphere is nice, feels very authentic, and the corn tortillas being prepared in real-time is great, I found the food to be quite bland. The meals looked delicious but flavor was lacking in most of it. The staff was lovely and helpful.

Great place to get a bunch of typical yucatecan food in one place. This location is quite spacious and indoors if you're looking for AC and fewer mosquitos. We had the sopa de lima, a vaporcito, and poc chuc and with the complimentary totopos and dips (frijoles, salsa habanera, and a pumpkin seed dip), we had plenty of food.

The Museo de Arte Contemporáneo Ateneo de Yucatán MACAY, housed in a former colonial palace, showcases a diverse collection of modern and contemporary Mexican art. Situated in the Plaza Grande near the Merida Cathedral, it is the sole contemporary art museum in Merida featuring works by both national and international artists.
To enter the museum you have to walk through an emblematic passage where we were welcomed with live violin music, which made it even more pleasant. The museum is in an attractive colonial building with a lot of different spaces and a large in door patio, which all carries beautiful artwork of 3 native artist Fernando Garcia Ponce, Fernando Castro Pacheco y Gabriel Ramirez Aznar as well as some other invited artists. Very recommended to get a glance of the local art scene!

Iglesia de Santa Lucía is a splendid church that I'm grateful to have visited. I purchased prayer cards and a rosary from the nuns who were selling religious items. The rosary is incredibly stunning, and people are always curious about where I obtained it. On Thursday evenings, the church community organizes a dinner fundraiser after the 6:00 PM mass. Patrons can enjoy delicious homemade local cuisine at affordable prices while also browsing through various artisan vendors present at the event.

(Translated by Google) The church is super nice, but the secretary isn't doing her job. I've been to the church about three times to check a wedding date, and they tell me they haven't opened a wedding date yet. That's what she told me each time: to come back the following month. And so as not to give up, I try to call, but no one answers. Today, when I went back to check the dates, I was surprised to find the woman playing with her cell phone, off the hook, and she told me the same old story. (Original) La iglesia super linda, sin embargo la sra que esta de secretaria no hace su labor. Ya fui como tres veces a la iglesia para revisar una fecha de boda y me dice que todavía no abren agenda. Eso me dijo cada vez que fui, que regresara al mes siguiente.

Hoy que fui nuevamente a revisar las fechas, sorpresa la sra jugando su celular y el telefono descolgado y me dijo el mismo cuento de siempre.

The Catholic church Temple of La Candelaria is a historic religious building in Merida, Yucatan. It is one of the few religious buildings that weren't pillaged and destroyed by the federal forces during the Mexican revolution. The temple is also cool because it is very old and has an interesting architecture.

Join us for an enchanting stroll through the heart of Merida with the Free Walking Tour Experience with Fernando. Discover the city's history, legends, and quirks as we explore its most prominent spots. Indulge in local snacks and desserts while mingling with friendly locals. Fernando is a knowledgeable and witty guide who welcomes questions and ensures a punctual start and finish to the tour. The walking distance is minimal, focusing on the area between Santa Lucia park and the main city plaza and cathedral.
Loved this tour with Fernando. Quite a bit of history was covered but instead of taking us to typical places he took us to some unique places. And recommended some other free and public places we could go to on our free time. Plus we got to know some fun facts including how lemongrass repels insects, higuera fruits being used for bowls etc. He also recommended some wonderful bars and restos (would vouch for Negrita! ).

Fernando was absolutely brilliant. Not only was he knowledgeable and informative, but fun-spirited and entertaining. He provided many local recommendations with its attached Yucatán and Mayan history—most of which had free or little to no cost admission or fees. We saw a majority of Centro without feeling too overwhelmed or left wondering what else the city has to offer its visitors. Being that we took the tour on our first full day in the area, Fernando was the best welcome we could have received; I highly recommend reserving a spot on his walking tour without question.

Fernando gave a wonderful tour of the city this morning. My wife and I are due to leave tomorrow and we almost did not come to this, I am so glad we did as it turned out to be a highlight of Merida. The tour is rich with the history of Mexico and specifically Merida and it's town. Some of the information is inspiring, some comedic, and some heartbreaking. Fernando showed us around the key parts of the town along the way and gave us many recommendations for places to visit (museums both free and paid for), bars and restaurants, and unique festivities nearby. Without this tour I promise you there will be so many things you will leave Merida not knowing. There is an unassuming spot near the Cathedral which you may walk past without thinking anything. After the tour my wife and I sat across from it and ate Gorditas (I jokingly call her my gordita) and looked at that spot, the old centre of the city where tens of millions have walked past. I would not have known about the significance of that spot without my new friend Fernando. Thank you for the wonderful tour, I will never forget.

Beautiful church. I can't remember the details but there is some cool background about the type of stones used and the architecture. I only viewed the landmark from the outside but it was a great site to see. I was on a walking tour and this was one of the highlights.

I visited the cathedral at night during my stay in Merida. It is beautiful with its architecture. We saw some people praying. We visited this place for free.

An imposing, large church built from the stones taken from a dismantled Mayan temple that stood on its site. If you pay attention you can still spot a few partial glyphs on some stones facing the outside. The inside is a single nave space with walls pierced by chapels and a crossing.

Don’t miss out on this beautiful church! Holy Mass times on Sundays: 09:00 am 12:00 (noon) 07:00 pm (19:00) Attended mass (in Spanish) at this amazing church this morning at 9 am (Sunday)and witnessed a baptism. Beautiful ceremony, beautiful singing, beautiful mass!

There are many beautiful churches in Merida, but this one is the most beautiful in my opinion. The photos and videos online are incomparable to seeing it in person. The artwork, retablo, statuary, stonework, and stenciling are all first rate.

Beautiful church built by the Jesuits. And if you join one of the free walking tours (by the local tourism office), you’ll know that this church is in fact one of the more fashionably-designed ones specifically because it was built the relatively more fashionable order of the Jesuits. It isn’t always open, so better to check the opening hours on specific days to get to see the inside.

Art. Culture. Amazing to view what the Jesuits built in the 17th century. I recommend newly visitors to take a breather to visit and observe. 👍👍 ... those Spaniards brought art from the Old World.

(Translated by Google) According to the historical plaque attached to a wall at the entrance to the Hermitage of Santa Isabel—Mother of Saint John the Baptist, whose feast day is July 8—or Buen Viaje—since, according to the residents of this historic neighborhood, it was there that the Virgin was asked for her blessing before beginning the journey along the Camino Real to San Francisco de Campeche. Its construction, near the grounds of the San Antonio Xcoholté hacienda, dates back to the colonial era: 1748, thanks to Don Gaspar González de Ledesma, who, according to journalist Jessica Ruiz Rubio, financed the construction with his own resources and later went to live there as a penitent hermit—hence the name "Ermita"—giving way to renouncing all material positions. The Hermitage of Santa Isabel or Buen Viaje features, in addition to the rectory, a botanical garden and preserves plants endemic to the region, identified by a plaque with their name and uses. The garden is very spacious and offers shade and rest to visitors. The church itself is beautiful, from its architectural design and its simple but beautiful altar, from where the "Virgin of the Good Journey" gazes lovingly at the traveler before embarking on the long journey to San Francisco de Campeche. President Clinton's wife, President Obama's Secretary of State Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton, and First Lady (visiting the neighborhood in 1997), along with many other personalities and artists, have visited its doors. It is also the center of events such as the National Corn Fair, held from March 29th to 30th. Across the street, which is said to still retain the original paving stones of the old Camino Real, is Santa Isabel Park—or the Hermitage Garden (formerly the Plazuela del Gallo)—with its beautiful gazebo surrounded by palm trees. (Park with free internet access. - Mérida City Council 2021-2024). The richness of this neighborhood, with its charming streets and old houses and buildings, some beautifully preserved and others restored (64th Street) with a focus on the architecture of the period, deserves the nickname "Magical Neighborhood." Next to the Hermitage is an institution working on the preservation of the Mayan language: the Municipal Academy of the Mayan Language ITZAMNA. Fact: But what is a Hermitage? It refers to an isolated place or chapel for prayer and contemplation, for occasional worship; sometimes inhabited by a hermit friar. Masses on Sundays: see schedule. San Sebastián Neighborhood 66th Street South Merida, Yucatan F. Diario de Yucatán: Report by Jessica E. Ruiz Rubio, who holds a degree in Journalism and a master's degree in Management. Megamedia Group / Personal Notes / Google Maps / Wikipedia. (The video and photographs that appear in this article were taken by the author) (Original) Según consta en la Placa Histórica que se encuentra adosada a un muro en la entrada de la Ermita de Santa Isabel -Madre de San Juan Bautista, fiesta el 8 de julio- o del Buen Viaje -ya que, cuentan los pobladores de ese histórico Barrio, ahí se pedía a la Virgen su bendición antes de iniciar el recorrido por el Camino Real a San Francisco de Campeche. Su construcción, en las inmediaciones de los terrenos de la hacienda de San Antonio Xcoholté, se remonta al tiempo de la Colonia: 1748, gracias a Don Gaspar González de Ledesma, quien, según la Periodista Jessica Ruiz Rubio, financió la construcción con sus propios recursos para después irse a vivir ahí como ermitaño penitente-; de ahí el nombre de “Ermita”-, renunciando a toda posición material. La Ermita de Santa Isabel o del Buen Viaje cuenta, además de la casa Cural, con Jardin Botánico, conserva plantas endémicas de la región, identificadas con una Placa con su nombre y usos. El Jardín es muy amplio y brinda sombra y descanso a los visitantes. La iglesia propiamente es hermosa desde su concepción arquitectónica y su sencillo pero bello altar, desde donde la “Virgen del Buen Viaje” mira con amor al viajero, antes de emprender el largo viaje a San Francisco de Campeche. Hasta sus puertas llegó la esposa del Presidente Clinton, Secretaria de Estado del Presidente Obama Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton y Primera Dama (visita al Barrio en 1997) y muchas otras personalidades y artistas, ya que es también el centro de eventos como La Feria Nacional del Maíz, que se lleva a cabo del 29 al 30 de marzo. Cruzando la calle, que se dice conserva aún las baldosas originales del antiguo Camino Real, se encuentra el Parque de Santa Isabel -o Jardín de la Ermita (antigua Plazuela del Gallo) con su precioso kiosko, rodeado de palmeras. (Parque con internet gratuito.- Ayuntamiento de Mérida 2021-2024). La riqueza de este Barrio, de lindas calles con sus antiguas casas y edificaciones, algunas bellamente conservadas y otras restauradas (calle 64) con apego a la arquitectura de la época, se merece el calificativo de “Barrio Mágico”. A un costado de la Ermita se encuentra una institución trabaja en la preservación del Maya: Academia Municipal de la Lengua Maya ITZAMNA. Dato: Pero que es una Ermita? Se dice del Lugar o capilla aislado, de oración y contemplación, de culto ocasional; en ocasiones habitado por un fraile ermitaño. Misas los Domingos: cf horarios.

This baroque church built in the 18th century gave its name to the park sprawling in front of it as well as the arch located at its southwest corner. It's a typical single nave Mexican church with the exception of its roof, which is supported by wooden beams, not by stone vaulting. The exterior has two ornate, slender towers and some native-looking details on the façade. It's pleasant to look at if you find yourself in the park.

(Translated by Google) Church built between 1769 and 1770 on a 17th century chapel, as an act of invocation to the protection of Saint John the Baptist. Located in the heart of the historic center and in front of San Juan Park, this church offers masses in the morning and evening at conventional times. It is located 3 blocks from the zócalo and the Mérida cathedral. (Original) Iglesia edificada entre 1769 y 1770 sobré una capilla del siglo XVl, cómo un acto de invocación a la protección de San Juan Bautista.

The Catholic Church in the town of Mejorada stands tall and proud, with its 17th-century church dominating the skyline. The monastery next to it was converted into a church in the late 19th century. Today, this sacred site is a place of worship for locals and visitors alike. The exterior of the building is made of beautiful red bricks, while its interior features an ornate altar and stained glass windows.

(Translated by Google) It is a European-style temple and parish of Nuestra Señora del Carmen, located in what is now known as the neighborhood of La Mejorada, built in 1640. Its style was reminiscent of the temple of La Mejorada in Madrid, built by Doña María de Aragón. According to the data, at the entrance to the first chapel there was a stone cross with the image of Christ. This church has inside a beautifully decorated altarpiece up to the image of the Virgin of Carmen, in the center. The convent attached to the temple (since 1983 it has been the Uady Faculty of Architecture) was built from 1688 to 1694, with the purpose of housing the Franciscans who wanted to observe their rule with extreme rigidity and severity. Its founders were the friars Juan de Acevedo, Juan de Urbita, Juan García, Bartolomé de Fuensalido and the layman Juan Fernández (Original) Es un templo al estilo Europeo y parroquia de Nuestra Señora del Carmen, se ubica en lo que ahora se conoce como el barrio de La Mejorada, construida en 1640.

Esta iglesia tiene en su interior un retablo bellamente decorado hasta la imagen de la Virgen del Carmen, en el centro.

These suggestions will aid you in crafting an exceptional itinerary that will undoubtedly make you fall head over heels for the enchanting White City.
