| Mayan Home. A view of the cooking area in a typical Mayan house. This is considered very basic to Western standards, with just a small fire set in the corner of the room, and a wire grill set upon two large rocks to act as a "barbecue" style cooker. Water would be collected from a "natural well" or cenote located in the vicinity of their home. |

| Peninsula, Tabasco, Quintana Roo, including the Riviera Maya, and as far as Chiapas. It provides an insight into how Maya & Mayan communities are adapting to the changes surrounding their heritage and lifestyle, and give a better understanding of the importance of sustaining family spirit to this wonderful nation of people. With Sustainable Tourism we aim to educate the many visitors to Mexico and Central America of the importance of maintaining the Mayan Heritage throughout all the Regions. Plus, help to assist in the Development & Redevelopment of Communities lost through lack of resources, or destroyed from natural disasters. Many communities are frequently damaged or destroyed from local floods, landslides, tropical storms, hurricanes, and loss of life sometimes goes unnoticed, especially in more rural areas. Plus, crops and natural resource are hugely effected, and have a huge impact on the local economy of the Maya. With the help of all our visitors to this website, we are having a huge impact on providing a better standard of living to Mayan Communities without changing any of the cultural aspects associated with Maya and village life. Your donations are helping to provide materials and provisions to communities effected by disasters, and aid communities cut off completely from their neighbours. However, this is only a small percentage of the help we can offer! You can visit one of the many Heritage Sites within Mexico & Central America, and enjoy the knowledge that you helped to sustain the History & Culture of the Mayas. Sustainable tourism programs like Coba Mayan Village are helping to keep the local economy thriving in areas around the Riviera Maya, and also providing valuable insight into Mayan culture! |
