Travel Guide: Acapulco - Mexico

acapulco acapulco
photo by: jose antonio lima
Going "loco" in Acapulco, that's what visitors of the beach resort come to do. And if you're into that kind of thing, it's the perfect place. There are great beaches, the water is always warm, and the sun always shines.  But when it doesn't, there's always nightlife until it rises again.

You would probably not expect this, but the city of Acapulco goes back about 2000 years ago. It was founded by the Nahua Indians who were the predecessors of the Aztecs. When Cortes arrived in Mexico, Acapulco was an important trading post.
