Wine & Food Fest

One of the best culinary experiences of the year, which brings together the best Mexican and international chefs (stars of Texas and New York) as well as Mexican sommeliers and wines.

Dinners, conferences and even a golf tournament are all featured during the five days of the event. You’ll find more details at:  https://wineandfoodfest.com/.

Spring Equinox

Date: March 21

The descent of Kukulkán is an amazing event to observe during the spring and autumn equinoxes at one of the 7 wonders of the modern world.

The temple of Kukulkán was built in such a way that during every equinox, the shadow of the sun on the stairs of the “Castle” resembles a serpent descending.
