by the Spanish conquerors who came at the end of the 16th century and developed

structures, stairs and walls between which the ball courts are placed.Tankama Archaeological Zone

area of the state oriented towards the Gulf of Mexico. Its mountains are quite high, some

the Santa Maria, Montezuma and Extoras rivers. For regional tourism Sierra Gorda

Halpan de Serra, Landa de Matamoros, Pinal de Amoles and Peñamiller. WITH
biological point of view, it is a transition zone between the Nearctic
and Neotropics, which contributes to the coexistence of many diverse species

attraction — Mission San Miguel de Conca, the smallest of the five
monasteries built by the Franciscans in the Sierra Gorda. The Spaniards appeared in the area
in 1532, but tried in vain to subdue the local natives, and
the construction of the mission was completed only in 1754. The small size of the temple
compensates for the abundance of decorative details of the exterior with the image

kayaking on the river Santa Maria, scenery of Las Adjuntas — junctions
Santa Maria and Ayutla, sport fishing, regional folklore,
handicraft and gastronomy – enchiladas, pumpkin seed sweet pie,
corn atole and pulque.
there are two more Franciscan missions. Santa Maria del Agua de Landa — Temple
of the Immaculate Conception of the Virgin Mary, which can be called a triumph of baroque style.
It was built in 1761-1764, and the main scene of the details of its facade is
the image of the Archangel Michael with the devil at his feet, presented in the form of a dragon.
In the decoration of other walls, mermaids from the local
folklore and Indian faces. Mission San Francisco de Asis del Valle del Tilaco
built between 1754 and 1762. Its architectural complex is like everything
the rest of the Franciscan missions, but is considered the best preserved. Wherein
the exterior decoration has a more subtle and complex ornament of plant motifs.
The Montezuma River flows through the municipality, the flow of which demonstrates all
shades of green, reflecting the surrounding vegetation, and on its banks you can
stay at the campsite and fish.- examination room
