Uayma

This small and peaceful town, located just 15 km from Valladolid, stands out for its impressive church in the colonial style, unique of its kind throughout Yucatán. Photographing and exploring it will be an unforgettable experience.

The Church and Former Convent of Santo Domingo de Guzmán dazzles from every angle. Its façade, decorated with stars and rosettes in red and blue tones, is made from stones quarried from nearby ancient archaeological sites.

Today, you can tour its interior, the spacious atrium, the sacristy, the corridors, the choir, and the adjoining chapel, not to mention its beautiful gardens. The site remains an active church where masses and sacraments are celebrated.

For a complete experience, it is recommended to visit early, especially on sunny days, when the contrast between the colorful façade and the blue sky is simply spectacular.

Uayma is a tranquil, welcoming place with easy access from Valladolid, a magical town full of history, cenotes, and close to archaeological sites such as Ek Balam and Chichén Itzá. It is an ideal destination for those seeking beauty, history, and peace all in one place.
