Maya World promotion


The Maya calendar ends on Dec. 21, 2012, leading some to believe the world will end on that date. Nothing special happened on the first day of the Maya calendar some 5,000 years ago, or at least nothing that I remember. No matter. With all the interest in the Maya calendar, special promotions are planned to attract tourists to Yucatan, Tabasco, Campeche and Quintna Roo, states once dominated by the Maya culture. Guatemala, Belize, Honduras and El Salvador may benefit as well.
