History
Hacienda Katanchel is located in the Tixkokob Municipality in the state of Yucatán in southeastern Mexico. It is one of the properties that arose during the nineteenth century henequen boom. In the late 1990s, the property was restored and converted into a nature reserve and a resort. Local residents can attend seminars at the hacienda laboratory to learn about the local flora and fauna.
