40km (25 miles) E of Chichén Itzá; 160km (100 miles) SW of Cancún
Valladolid (pronounced "bah-yah-doh-leed") is a small, pleasant colonial city halfway between Mérida and Cancún. The people are friendly and informal, and, except for the heat, life is easy. The city's economy is based on commerce and small-scale manufacturing. There is a large cenote in the center of town and a couple more 4km (3 miles) down the road to Chichén. A restoration project has reconstructed several rows of colonial housing in the neighborhood surrounding the convent of San Bernardino de Siena. Valladolid can also be the starting point for several interesting side trips .
