There are several reasons why Quintana Roo —a state located in the southeastern region of Mexico— has an important cultural wealth. One of them is because of world-class tourism which has led it to have one of the eight international airports in Mexico in addition to being praised by the World Tourism Organization.
Currently, due to the interest and growth of the population and cities in Quintana Roo, contemporary Mexican architects have dedicated themselves to constructing some buildings of a residential, cultural, and recreational nature that are showing common local features that make up the new architecture of the region. Here are some contemporary architecture examples in Quintana Roo.
