Everything to Know About Cheap Flights to Veracruz
Flights to Veracruz from USA
Veracruz is Mexico’s most important port city and one of its most historically significant — the city where Hernán Cortés landed in 1519 (founding the first Spanish settlement in mainland Mexico), where Mexico’s most significant external interventions arrived (Spanish, French, and US forces all attacked Veracruz), and where the extraordinary port culture of the Gulf of Mexico produced the son jarocho musical tradition (the ‘Jarabe Tapatío’, the fandango, and the extraordinary zapateado footwork of Veracruz’s street music — the most vibrant and most spontaneous live music culture of any Mexican city). The extraordinary Zócalo (the main plaza, where marimba orchestras and son jarocho ensembles play continuously from afternoon until midnight, creating a free outdoor concert of extraordinary energy), the San Juan de Ulúa fortress (the extraordinary colonial fortress-prison on an island in the harbor), and the extraordinary El Tajín archaeological site (UNESCO, 2.5h north — the most extraordinary pyramid complex of the Gulf Coast Totonac civilization) create a city of remarkable depth.
