Veracruz

A land of deep green valleys, and high mountain slopes, Veracruz meets the Gulf of Mexico with a joy and calm that reassures generations of visitors. A hey-day in the 1950s left many beaches all but abandoned by the end of the 20th century, but Veracruz is re-emerging as an environmental and cultural destination even stronger than before.

There are spas and luxe amenities, but visitors come today for the intellectual life around the capital in Xalapa, and the surrounding cooler mountain towns. It's a remarkable and diverse state perhaps matching its tremendous geographic extension with tales and culture as profoundly invigorating as its forests are green, and its fields are verdant.
