There are several reasons to appreciate visiting Mexico, including the cities, cuisine, culture, people, and many other aspects. Mexico's wealth of magnificent ... read more...

  1. The Tamul waterfall on the Gallinas River rushes toward the adjoining Santa Mara River in the northern part of the municipality of Aquismón, in the Huasteca Potosina, hidden in a tight, high-walled canyon. Of all the waterfalls in the Huasteca Potosina, Tamul is the most atracting and exciting. So there is no doubt in saying that this is one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Mexico.


    To get to the waterfall, you must take a boat tour after you arrive at the location. If you choose to travel by boat, you can anticipate a leisurely hour-and-a-half-long trip during which the bizarrely colored water, the vegetation, and the rock formations will not fail to captivate you.


    Make Ciudad Valles your home base and plan to stay there for at least a few days to fully experience this wild and undeveloped area, where turquoise rivers and waterfalls, lush jungles, deep caves, and other wonders will vie for your attention constantly


    The Huasteca Potosina, the hub of active tourism and a preferred cooling spot of San Luis Potosi is home to numerous natural wonders, including the enchanted garden of Xilitla, Tamul waterfall, God's bridge, and Sotano of the Hughes.

  2. It's not quite a true waterfall, Hierve El Agua. It is a limestone petrified waterfall that has formed an incredible natural landmark perched on a mountain in Oaxaca City.


    There are a few natural pools with icy water beneath the massive waterfall-shaped rock where you can swim despite the extremely low temperature. The experience of looking at your surroundings from that vantage point is truly amazing. The waterfall can also be viewed from a different angle by taking a short hike around it.


    Hierve el Agua
    , which refers to the springs on top of the cliff where water "bubbles up" from the ground resembling boiling water on the stove, is translated as "the water boils." There are still remnants of the irrigation system used by the Zapotec people who inhabited the region 2000 years ago to irrigate their fields with water from Hierve el Agua. These days, Hierve el Agua's water is channeled to create two infinity pools on two different levels where you can swim, a great way to beat the heat!


    Though technically not a waterfall in the traditional sense of the word, Hierve el Agua is one of the coolest places close to Oaxaca and is well worth a day trip.


    Location: Oaxaca de Juárez, Oaxaca, Mexico

  3. El Chiflon, one of Mexico's most stunning waterfalls, is tucked away in the heart of Chiapas' forests and is a must-see for anyone traveling there. Some of the world's most brilliant turquoise water can be found in this chain of five waterfalls, and the contrast between the vivid water and the lush forest's deep green color creates an incredibly majestic scene. The Bridal Veil, El Chiflon's tallest waterfall, naturally attracts the most attention, but the smaller waterfalls are equally stunning.


    El Chiflon
    is a popular swimming hole and picnic location for both locals and visitors, and it is a great day trip from nearby San Cristobal de las Casas. Ziplining is another option for people who want to catch a glimpse of the Bridal Veil they won't soon forget.


    El Chiflon is still one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Mexico and in the world today, and it is undoubtedly one of Mexico's most majestic falls. If you visit Chiapas, make sure you don't miss it!

  4. Agua Azul in Chiapas is yet another outstanding waterfall in Mexico that you absolutely must include in your travel plans. Agua Azul, which is situated halfway between San Cristobal and Palenque, is a highly well-liked tourist spot but is still worthwhile going to. The water is a stunning shade of turquoise and is exceptionally clear and clean.


    The enormous waterfall, like El Chiflon, is created by a number of waterfalls cascading down the hills, creating pools and amazing water cascades. The falls are accessible by foot, and you can view them from various perspectives.


    However, keep in mind that the river transports a lot of muck and debris during the rainy season, and the water doesn't appear as clear or clean after the intense rains. The best time to travel is therefore during the dry season, particularly in March and April.


    Locals enjoy spending weekends and special occasions like Christmas and Easter in Agua Azul. There are a ton of gift shops and excellent restaurants in the area that are all priced quite affordably.

  5. On the route from San Cristóbal de las Casas to Palenque, in the state of Chiapas, is the stunning Cascada de Misol Há. It is roughly 13 miles from Palenque and is frequently visited as a day excursion from Palenque or as part of tours from Palenque to San Cristóbal de las Casas and vice versa. These excursions are quite simple to locate and are most likely the simplest method to view the falls.


    With its surrounding jungle and stunning circular pool, Misol Ha is a particularly gorgeous location. Misol Ha is a single 35m drop that plunges into an almost perfectly circular pool. The pool's deep blue color is a result of the water's high mineral content, much like Agua Azul.


    There is a trail that circumnavigates the pool and takes you behind the waterfall. Behind the waterfall is a little cave that is around 20 meters long. Swimming is also permitted in the pool. The pool is large enough for a satisfying swim, and the water is pleasant and fresh. There are also cabins available for rent. It's in a good spot for this because it's close to historical sites and other Mexican waterfalls.

  6. Pozas Azules is one of Mexico's must-see waterfalls, despite the fact that its location in the state of Guerrero may make it seem a little out of the way to some. However, if you visit Mexico City and want to spend a weekend somewhere exotic, you should think about going here.


    The Pozas Azules de Atzala are the perfect location to spend a relaxing weekend or a few days over the Easter break because of their pristine waters and stunning panoramic views.


    You might first take a bus to Taxco. You will reach one of Mexico's Magic Towns, known for its silver artistry, jewelry, winding roads, and breathtaking views of the city and the valley, after a lovely two-hour trip.


    Las Pozas Azules is the suggested location to enjoy the outdoors. The Ministry of Tourism (Sectur) describes the area as "a hidden but well-known destination" and notes that there are seven pools surrounded by stunning waterfalls and rocky outcroppings that are worth admiring.


    Location: Atzala de la Asunción, Taxco, Gro., Mexico
