The sacred Cumbre Tajin in Veracruz encompasses high culture, ecotourism, steam baths, music and anything to do with nurturing the mind, body and spirit. Spiritually-minded souls enjoy several days of non-stop entertainment, featuring singers, dancers and much more.

This celebration of life takes place largely around a grand theme park in Tajin, an area long believed to be steeped in mystic tradition. There are temazacal steam baths, healing and many alternative therapies to sort out the body, as well as knitting, pottery, masks, candle and breathing workshops to dip into.

All of this takes place in the area where the old Totonac people traditionally lived. Their allegiance to the Earth and mysticism are important qualities that the Cumbre seeks to recapture.
