Lavish history is behind of Cancun. Ancient name of Cancun was “Kan Kun” and it means den of snakes, abundant low-lying areas and golden serpent. New name “Can Cun” was given by Spanish. Wetlands, Jungles, Virgin beaches and Mangroves were the part of Cancun. Cancun was dominated by local or Mayan civilizations till the local sites were abandoned in mid of 15th century. Many vacationers quote the beaches and nightlife of Cancun Mexico as the main diversions. But cultural activities including the Chichen Itza also form part of the main things to do in Cancun, and must consider Tulum tours where you get an opportunity to visit the Mayan ruins.
