Places to stay overnight

Once you’re in the city centre, get to the main square and find «Palacio Municipal». It is a governmental building, but the best thing about it is that you can ask permission to camp there. Ask the police chief, and once your stay is approved, you will find yourself in a very safe place under surveillance of guards.

If you want to get to ruins of Uxmal, it will be a wise idea to camp in Palacio Municipal, wake up early in the morning, leave your backpacks at the police department of Palacio and get a ride with some workers in direction of Uxmal. There are almost no visitors in the morning, so you can enjoy the whole complex of ruins without being bothered by tourists and souvenir-sellers. The entrance ticket costs 213 pesos (July 2016).
