Veracruz State, located in southeastern Mexico,
features the longest coastline on the Gulf of
Mexico and is virtually synonymous with enjoyment,
music, dancing, charm and witchcraft. Its colorful
fiestas held throughout the year culminate in
its internationally renowned carnival, which,
combined with the superb local cuisine, make it
a magnet for tourists.
Veracruz is home to colorful
cities such as Cordoba, Papantla and Tlacotalpan,
declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Catemaco
and its Isla de los Monos are known for their
magical influences and Catemaco's witch festival
held annually in March.
The city of Veracruz was founded by Spanish conquistador
Hernandez Cortes in 1519 at the start of his quest
to conquer Mexico and who named the port La Villa
Rica de la Vera Cruz ("The Rich Town of the Holy
Cross"). It remains one of the most important
port cities in Mexico, is the largest city on
the Gulf and features a fascinating blend of colonial
and modern architecture.
