At the turn of the century, more millionaires lived in the isolated region of Mâerida than in any other city in the world, building breathtaking, brilliantly colored homes nestled into the surrounding tropical forest like hidden jewels. Over time, nature conquered, leaving crumbling walls in place of what were once vibrant, elaborately decorated mansions. Contains new photographs from 30 previously unseen residences across the peninsula in such locations as Izamal, Mâerida, and Valladolid.--From publisher.
