Hacienda Temozón was one of the most important crops and livestock haciendas in the region. It dates from 1655. Like many other haciendas, the original owners of this estate were the descendants of the conquistador who conquered Mexico's Yucatan for the Spanish crown. This place was restored with the attention to the detail and today functions as a hotel. It was not difficult to imagine the leisurely life and luxury surrounding the former owners. The original machinery, small railroad cars, and narrow gauge railway tracks reminded us of the bygone era and the hard labor of Maya forced to work here.
Interesting is to mention a fact that Hacienda Temozón was visited by two US presidents invited here by the Mexican counterparts. Bill Clinton was invited for an “anti-drug” summit in 1999. George W. Bush visited Temozón in 2007.
