Travel becomes easier each year as Mexico opens new roads to formerly isolated villages and builds modern airports where thatched-roof structures once stood.

Because the country is so large and so completely different from any English-speaking nation, it pays to do some research before you go. You'll be rewarded if you learn a few simple phrases in Spanish, such as gracias ("thank you") or de nada (as in "you're welcome").
