The distributión of cenotes and variations of gravitational field reveal the mark of the former impact in the planet.

Chicxulub

In1990 the scientíst Alan Hildebrand found the evidence leafing through old geophysics data from a group of geophysists and geologists searching petroleum in this part of México.

Inside this information he found the site that exposes the evidence of a former and gigantic impact

He found a crater of 112 miles in diametor . The closest Mayan town “Chicxulub” shares the same name, Península.The crater was dated using the method . Northwest of the 40Ar/39Ar) = 65 millon years.

It is the proof of the meteorite impact 1.- Gravitational field NASA.2.- This concentric fractures when dilute became cuves and cenotes.3.- The cráter Chicxulub.

BUTAN

To preserve the local culture they restrict the pass to tourists.

This country issues only 5000 visas a year

Butan is expensive, but it is a marvelous destination

Each visitor has to pay 200 dollars per day just to be there

They measure gross interior happiness of their residents,the preservation of health and natural resources and time to enjoy with their families

Fair tourism exists.although the demand for this tourism is still a minorityDifferent studies show there is an increase in tourism
