Abstract

The article focuses on the development of Parque del Jaguar, a new national park in Tulum, Mexico, designed by Colectivo C733 to reconnect the resort town with its Mayan archaeological site. The park aims to address the challenges posed by mass tourism, including environmental degradation and social inequality, by providing improved access and facilities while promoting conservation. The project, which is part of a larger initiative involving the Tren Maya train line, incorporates sustainable design elements and aims to enhance the visitor experience while respecting the area's natural and cultural heritage. The park's design includes various access points, visitor amenities, and structures that blend into the landscape, facilitating a harmonious relationship between the built environment and the surrounding jungle.
