Introducing Ticul
Ticul, 30km east of Uxmal, is the largest town in this ruin-rich region. It’s dusty and quiet, with certainly no nightlife (other than perhaps a watering hole), but it has hotels and restaurants and transportation, and makes an attractive base for day trips to nearby ruins, though people going by public transportation to the Ruta Puuc sites will need to go to Muna or Santa Elena first. Ticul is also a center for fine huipil weaving, and ceramics made here from the local red clay are renowned throughout the Yucatán.
