Colorful streets of Playa del Carmen, my current nomadic base in Mexico

Hi my Steemit fellows!

After posting photos and stories from many different countries and places, I realized I haven’t actually showed you my current hometown, the beautiful Mexican city of Playa del Carmen.

Located right in the middle of the famous Riviera Maya (between Cancun and Tulum), Playa del Carmen is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Mexico, offering a wide range of tourist activities, year-round sunny climate and stunning white-sand beaches washed by turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea.

I will definitely dedicate another, more detailed post to this city soon but for now, let me just show you a few, random shots from its streets as this is also my entry for today´s #streetphotography contest organized by @juliank and @photocontests.

Mexican colors are everywhere (I took this image early in the morning, hence the absence of people)

Many of Playa´s streets are decorated with impressive street art.

Just like most other cities in Yucatan, Playa also has its sculpture signs. This one is located close to the Quinta Avenida, the main boulevard.

Traditional Mayan ritual known as Flying Mayans. Performed daily for tourists, it takes place next to the Portal Maya in the city center.
