Some history of my hometown of Merida Yucatan
Two thousand years ago the city centre of my home town was home to Mayan ruins, in in the 14 hundreds my ancestors came and wreaked havoc on the Mayans (which I an ashamed of) and built their homes and the city we know today. This first picture is the door to the home of Montejo who founded the city
And here is another entryway 
His home is now a museum and its free to go in and look. There is a street that is a few miles long right outside the city centre which is called Paseo de Montejo, there are mansions all up and down the street which are fashioned out of Paris streets
Here are a couple mansions on that street
That one is my favorite here is another one
The downtown area has homes with doors that are over a thousand years old
When you get inside it looks like this they have a courtyard and the rooms surround the courtyard
This theatre is free to the public and it has symphonies, plays, concerts I grew up coming here
There is alot of history and culture to my city of you ever go to Mexico try to go to Merida you will not be disappointed. Thank you for taking this walk down history lane with me, have a beautiful Sunday and a great Monday! Peace and love

It is a beautiful city. The theatre looks amazing. I would love to go there. The central court yard with rooms around the outside is very old Spanish colonial style. We have some buildings like this in Nicaragua. They are very beautiful.
Yes when you go through the doors you get a big surprise, you think the place is going to be small from the outside and its huge! I should have known you were Spanish with the name ceci is it short for Cecilia like me? Thanks for dropping in! Always a pleasure❤️
Nope. Just plain Ceci. My great grandmother was Spanish.
