What to do in Veracruz
From the danzón-dancing couples in Veracruz City’s zócalo to the impressive ruins at El Tajin to the north, to the snow-capped peaks of Pico de Orizaba, Veracruz has a diverse array of things to do for any visitor. A wonderful Caribbean vibe infuses Veracruz City—it is home to Mexico’s largest and best-known Carnival celebration—and on Friday and Saturday evenings its seafront boulevard and zócalo pulsate with music and fun. You'll never run out of things to do in Veracruz.
