Cancun
is a tourist destination located in the state of Quintana Roo,
on the Yucatan peninsula in southeastern Mexico. Cancun's Hotel
Zone was selected by a computer as a lively spot for a government-backed
resort development, and it was established in 1971. Cancun sits
between the Caribbean Sea on one side, and the still waters
of Laguna Nichupte on the other side.
