Mazatlan
Mexico is an ancient Nahuatl word that means "land of the deer"
-- not exactly a name you'd expect for a fishing port. But there's more
to this town than seafood. Visitors can attend the bullfights every
Sunday during the winter, stroll the Mazatlan Mexico art gallery to
view significant works by Mexican artists, gaze at the second highest
lighthouse in the world (Gibraltar has the highest), or head over to
Acuario Mazatlan Mexico where more than 250 Mazatlan species of sea life
swim behind glass and sea lions put on a daily show. Mazatlan Mexico |
