Exotic Vacation Places

This weekend, Bar Refaeli was spotted having a vacation in Mexico with one of her girlfriend. This sexy supermodel was relaxing with a tiny black bikini in a hotel poolside. What made it special, this was not the first time Bar Refaeli spent a holiday in Mexico. She was visiting Mexico couple times before with her on-and-off boyfriend, actor Leonardo DiCaprio.



In late 2008, Bar Refaeli and Leonardo DiCaprio had a getaway in Mexico and visited the historic ruins in Tulum. It was an ancient temple of Maya, and located on 39 ft cliff along the east coast of the Yucatan Peninsula on the Caribbean Sea in the state of Quintana Roo, Mexico. The archaeological site is relatively compact (compared with many other Maya sites in the vicinity), and is one of the best-preserved coastal Maya sites.

The landscapes of this region are extremely varied and frequently very beautiful. The highlands are sunny, warm by day but pleasantly cool and invigorating at night. Most of the Yucatan Peninsula is low-lying, tangled scrub in the north, dense jungle in the wetter south. This is the area where the famous Mayan sites are found. The coast of the Yucatan has some fine beaches, and the heat here is tempered by the winds of the Caribbean.



While earlier in the same year, she and Leo also visited Mexico, they were spent a holiday in the resort city of Puerto Vallarta. This is an exotic city on the Pacific Ocean's Bahia de Banderas in the state of Jalisco. Because of its beauty, this city often used as a movie set, one of it was Ben Stiller's Heartbreak Kid.

This picture on the left shows the symbol of Puerto Vallarta. This statue of a boy riding his seahorse is located at Malecon, a paved walkway along the seashore in Col. Centro.

Other pupular landmarks of Puerto Vallarta would be Parish Church of Our Lady of Guadalupe, City Hall, and Playa Les Muertos (Beach of The Dead) - the city's largest public beach. Legend has it the beach's name stems from a battle between pirates and local miners after which bodies remained strewn on the beach.



So, those are the place where Bar Refaeli and her boyfriend visited during their vacation in Mexico. I wonder which is the more beautiful, seeing Bar Refaeli in bikini, or the exotic nature of Mexico? While for the country itself, there are many more tourist objects that worth visiting. I might get down to that on the next post.
