Sotuta de Peon Hacienda is the restoration project of a landmark located in the heart of the ancient henequen zone in the State of Yucatan and gives a true glimpse of what was once a fully operational Henequen Hacienda in the grand style and tradition of this period. When touring Sotuta de Peon, our visitors will literally travel back in time, transported on wooden platforms called "trucks" which are pulled by mules over rails, as were originally used by the workers.
Here, you will witness the step by step process of the transformation of the Henequen (called “Green Gold” as it was known throughout the region), from plant to fiber and from fiber to finished products.
For an unforgettable experience, we invite you to swim in the water of “Dzul-Ha”, an underground river located in the Hacienda. Dzul-Ha means “gentleman of the water”, always refreshing and never disappointing. This will be a lifetime experience, where you will interact with the people from the Hacienda. Don´t miss it!
