No te pierdas lo mejor de Playa del Cármen
Sightseeing
This may be the first place you see in Playa del Carmen if you come by bus from the airport. Parque Fundadores is the park in Playa del Carmen just outside of the bus station on 5th Avenue.
The name means “Founding Fathers Park” and it is one of the original areas in Playa del Carmen at the tip of Avenue Juarez.
This public space is forever reinventing itself.
Perhaps the most iconic scene on this park is the Portal Maya Statue in Playa del Carmen. This huge bronze structure was place here in late 2011.
It is entitled “Portal Maya 2012”. It celebrates the Mayan calendar and the date of December 21st. 2012. The sculpture was designed by artist Arturo Taravez who is from Guanajuato, Mexico. The sculpture is 16 meters high or about 52 feet high.

Frida Kahlo was a Mexican artist who is undoubtedly one of the most influential artists in Mexico.
Her artistic legacy and life story have made her a symbol of courage in the face of adversity.
She painted many iconic portraits and self-portraits inspired by the nature and artifacts of Mexico’s diverse cultural history.
Her work explores questions of identity, postcolonialism, gender, class, and race in Mexican society.
The Riviera Maya Frida Kahlo museum is situated in Playa del Carmen along 5th avenue and is an absolute must for any art or history mavens.
Her footprints have marked Mexican society in more ways than one.

Makeup lovers, rejoice!
There is nothing worse than forgetting an essential for your vacay, whether you need your highlighter for the glow upon an evening or if it smashed on the plane Sephora is here to cater to all of your beauty needs at amazing prices.
If you are from England you will probably be way more excited about this than the average American as us Brit’s don’t actually have the privilege of having Sephora in the UK yet (yeah, it sucks).

So, again this place isn’t technically on 5th Avenue but it’s tangent to it and it’s the place to go for nightlife!
For a full breakdown of all the hotspots on 12th street read my ultimate guide to nightlife in Playa del Carmen here.
You’ll find infamous clubs such as Palazzo and Coco Bongo.
What I love about Playa del Carmen opposed to my home town of Manchester is that all the best places for nightlife are on the same street meaning you can walk from one place to the next without getting taxis.

Food scene
Es un buen lugar, la atención es muy buena en todo momento los meseros son amables y atentos, la comida es muy buena, tienen buen sazón, vale mucho la pena que prueben el aguachile, está riquísimo y pica algo, las tostadas de pulpo también son muy buenas y el filete de pescado al ajillo, para acompañar tu comida puedes pedir alguna cerveza, coktel o refresco, tienen mucha variedad.
Ambientan muy bien su lugar con buena música actual y bailarinas.
El único inconveniente es que es un lugar caro y sirven poco, debes tener un consumo mínimo.
