Murals in Playa Del Carmen, Mexico
The main tourist drag in Playa is Fifth
Avenue. It should come as no surprise that some of the city's art
would be located there. The sea turtle is near the Founding
Father's park where you'll see the Aztec dancers on the beach.
But, Fifth Avenue is very long. When you stroll, if you look for art and avoid any and all eye contact with the souvenir hawkers, you'll see the woman with the floral hair about at the intersection of Fifth Avenue and Calle 8. But, let me repeat, Fifth Avenue is long. The other murals were located in a section of town with a lot of murals all clustered together. It was about 25 blocks later at the intersection of Fifth and Calle 70.
I was told that if I continued the walk to around Calle 100, and then took a right turn, I'd find the beach that was mostly visited by the local people of Playa. Well, I can understand why people who owned cars or bicycles might visit that beach. It was simply too far for me to walk under the Mexico sun.
