The Yellow City, where nearly every building in the historic center is painted a warm golden yellow. The massive Convento de San Antonio de Padua, with the second-largest atrium in the world, was built over a Maya pyramid whose remains still rise nearby. It is one of Mexico's most photogenic Pueblos Mágicos.
