- Cancun
There are two versions about the origin of the name, according to Mayan pronunciation, the first version is "nest of snakes or pot" and the second version and less accepted is "place of the golden snake" that is because the island of Cancun has a form of "7" and the dawn appears as a golden serpent by the glare.
The Nichupté Lagoon is on the opposite side of the island from the Caribbean Sea, which is used for boating excursions and jet-ski jungle tours.
Cancún is also the gateway to the Riviera Maya and the Yucatan interior, which has numerous archaeological sites, as Chichen Itza, Cobá and Tulum as well as the many cenotes such as Dos Ojos and Ik Kil.
Cancun's nightlife is active.
There are a lot of clubs, Hotels, and there is a beautiful Sea :D

- Cananea
The first non-native inhabitants of the land where Cananea is now located arrived in 1760. Jesuit priests discovered and extracted gold and silver mines.
The Cananea jail was built in 1903 and is located in downtown Cananea. It was the first public jail of the city and is currently a museum ("Museo de la Lucha Obrera") with exhibitions of photographs and instruments used in mining.
This is the location where the company the Cananea Consolidated Copper Company controlled by Col. William Cornell Greene :D
