Real Resorts is commemorating the significance of the Mayan belief in the importance of the year 2012 with a Mayan Cultural and Culinary Celebration through Dec. 21 at all four of its resorts in Cancun and Playa del Carmen. The festival is designed to commemorate the new Mayan calendar. Beginning Dec. 12, the sun will adjust with the center of the Milky Way for the first time in approximately 26,000 years, and on Dec. 21, it will mark the end of the 13th Mayan Calendar, which represents a 144,000-day cycle since the mythical Mayan day of creation.
Although some initially interpreted this to be the “end of the world as we know it,” scholars now see it as something more positive, the beginning of a new era ushering in a time of enlightenment and self-improvement. In honor of this, Real Resorts is celebrating this extraordinary and fascinating culture.
