There are tall rugged mountains and a high scene in the point of convergence of the country, and low coastal plains. The climate often changes from tropical climate to desert climate.

The vast majority in Mexico communicate in Spanish. Mexico is the nation with the largest majority of Spanish speakers on the planet. A larger number of individuals communicate in Spanish in Mexico than in Spain, in light of the fact that a lot more individuals live in Mexico and the nation is likewise multiple occasions greater.
Mexicans are known as very kind and extremely welcoming to outsiders. The locals are extremely fond of children as well. Mariachi are the well-known artists who are known for playing folk music. For the most part, they use string instruments, yet in addition trumpets are now and again played. The groups are regularly invited to play at birthday gatherings, weddings and other family festivities.
Mexico is a great place to visit all year round. During the fall, you get to witness the Halloween traditions. However, citizens don’t celebrate Halloween but a holiday called ‘Dia de Los Muertos’ meaning ‘Day of the Dead’. Families celebrate the deaths of loved ones by celebrating the good memories they have brought. In gratitude, families have an offering table full of delicious foods for those who have passed away. As stated before, one of the most popular places in Mexico is Acapulco in which there is also a popular cliff called ‘La Quebrada’. Jumping off a cliff into the deep blue ocean is a popular activity among tourists and locals in the summer. Visiting during the winter is also a fun and interesting time to visit. Of course, there is Christmas and New Years to celebrate but there is another famous holiday on January 6th of every year. January 6 is the feast of the Epiphany, also known as the Day of the Holy Kings. It is celebrated in remembrance of the biblical story of the three kings' visit to Jesus. On this special day, many citizens bake or buy an oval, donut shaped bread. Depending on the size, there are little baby figures hidden inside to represent Jesus. If you receive a piece of bread with one inside, symbolically it means you are Jesus’ godparent therefore you must sponsor a party on February 2nd, another holiday. Even if you aren’t religious, the bread is still an appetizing dessert.
Some native Mexican dishes are Pozole (a pre-Hispanic soup that was once used as part of ritual sacrifices), Tacos al Pastor (one of the most popular varieties of tacos, with origins dating back to the 1920s and 30s and the arrival of Lebanese and Syrian immigrants to Mexico), Elote (the Mexican name for corn on the cob and it can be found on nearly every city street corner in Mexico), Enchiladas (stuffed tortillas that are covered in chili sauce), Mole (pronounced ‘mol-eh’), a popular sauce in Mexican cooking) , and Guacamole (made from mashed-up avocadoes, onions, tomatoes, lemon juice and chili peppers (and sometimes a clove or two of garlic). Guacamole is often eaten with tortilla chips or used as a side dish).
Mexico is a beautiful place, with plenty of history, beautiful beaches and has many traditions. Mexico may not be the safest place on earth but it is one of the places in the world that has the potential to get better. I’ve been to Cozumel, Mexico and Costa Maya, Mexico they are really beautiful places that I hope to visit again. The people are very nice and respectful though their main language is Spanish most can speak English. Mexico is a place I would recommend you to visit and I guarantee you will enjoy your stay.
