Editor's choice for Chiapas

Chiapas offers a diverse landscape ranging from the 1,000-meter vertical walls of Sumidero Canyon to the turquoise travertine pools of Agua Azul. The region preserves significant history at Palenque, a major Maya city-state known for its intricate bas-relief carvings and the Temple of the Inscriptions. In San Cristóbal de las Casas, the Na Bolom museum documents Lacandon Maya culture, while the San Vicente River feeds the towering 120-meter Velo de Novia cascade at El Chiflón.
