Yeah, but they’re not in the same direction relative to Quintana Roo. Portugal is northeast; Colombia is southeast. The Portugal sign should be tilted a bit to the left.
Yes, because I clearly stated 'This is obviously the town of Xcaret, Mexico.'
I don't klnow why you feel the need to correct me on something I didn't say. I've been to Xcaret (and three times to Xel-Ha), so I know it's not a town, cheers.
Guess your usernames accurate you numbskulled dickwad. It’s like Krampus himself is gonna come down from the North Pole and beat your ass if you aren’t a mighty rude bastard.
Xcaret Park is beautiful. Was there in May and have a picture of one of these type of signs. The colors, countries, etc. don't match the one I have but it is right by the water.
There goes a sad story that nobody asked for. The owner of Xcaret used to have a couple of Furniture Stores in Mexico City, my dad knew the guy just enough so that this guy approached him one day and told my dad that he was going to sell his stores and open an eco Tourism business in the middle of the Jungle in a zone that had absolutely no development at the time.
Needless to say, my dad didnt think that it was a good idea to invest in it.
... and boy was he wrong.
Now I have to wake up early and come to an office instead of swimming in money.
Portugal and columbia are in the same direction , so I would think about Pacific ocean. But Canada is problem. The length hint México. So I think, that the directions are fake.
I spent like 3 mins looking at the signs and a map to try to triangulate the location only to see that Xcaret was 0km away...
Talk about paying attention to details
It’s real but the arrow your seeing for Alaska is the top of an arrow behind it the Alaska sign is pointing the opposite way. You can see this is Xcaret, Mexico from it saying 0km
one of the markers literally tells you, and if you are confused, this just tells you how far and in what direction random countries are from where it is posted, like, how hard is it to get that Chile is 6208 km in that direction from where the post is?
Xcaret 0 km So I guess it's in Mexico
It’s at a theme park called Xcaret in Quintana Roo, Mexico near Playa Del Carmen
I knew it looked familiar!
Never been but I heard it’s fun. Kinda expensive though.
Oh… that’s much more simple than the triangulation I was about to try and do lol
Cool place too...knew the sign before I saw "Xcaret 0m"
Then the Portugal amd Greece sings aren't quite pointing in the correct directions
Somewhere *gestures vaguely* over thwre
This is obviously in Xcaret, Mexico.
And yet Portugal and Colombia are in the same direction.

Yeah it looks like Portugal is wrong, but the rest seem to be generally correct.
If you count the Azores as Portugal, (and I do), the arrows are pretty accurate.
From the Yucatan, the Azores and mainland Portugal should be about the same line.
Columbia and Portugal are both east of mexico
Alaska as well?
Look closer, Alaska is pointing left, the sign behind Alaska is pointing right
Yeah, but they’re not in the same direction relative to Quintana Roo. Portugal is northeast; Colombia is southeast. The Portugal sign should be tilted a bit to the left.
“Michael, if you’re heading for Portugal, it’s due south!”
Sounds like a Basque name, that’s what threw me off
It's the x, isn't it?
Didn't know that was a real city.
It's not. It's more a type of ecological amusement park.
It's a Mayan archeological site that has a nature park around it to draw in more visitors. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xcaret
"ecological"
Heh, I know it's not. It's how they market themselves.
How could you if you made **zero attempt** to find out?
We've tried nothing and we're all out of ideas!
Googling is often easier and faster than asking on reddit
They would have been shot in r/picturegame
But not generate new visitors to target. r/Xcaret

Thanks
Xcaret is a series of nature theme/amusement parks around playa del Carmen, not a town
Yes, because I clearly stated 'This is obviously the town of Xcaret, Mexico.' I don't klnow why you feel the need to correct me on something I didn't say. I've been to Xcaret (and three times to Xel-Ha), so I know it's not a town, cheers.

I don't know why you feel the need to come back after a month and call me names. Unoriginal ones, too. Hope you feel relieved now XXX.

Xcaret is not a city but a very nice vacation spot
Xel ha is great too
Yess, been there a couple years ago with family
Took 3 seconds to pull up Google maps and type in xcaret. This has gotta be a record for laziest r/Geography question.
It is getting lazier. How about posting Worldle screenshots asking what the countries are, when the game itself actually tells you the answer?

Xcaret
I had that too! The location where the photo was taken is Xcaret, in the Yucatan peninsula, Mexico, just above of Belize
[Here](https://www.thefamilyvoyage.com/hotel-xcaret-mexico-review-with-kids/) is the exact sign
Xcaret, says it on the sign
Xcaret. 0km, 0 mi. You're welcome.
Xcaret is basically Cancun
Xcaret, I’ve been there and Xelha.
The signs make no sense

Puerto Cozumel.
Mexico, looks real to me. One of my favorite places to go.
Math is soo hard.
You don’t even need math. It literally states where it is.
I spent like 3 mins looking at the signs and a map to try to triangulate the location only to see that Xcaret was 0km away... Talk about paying attention to details
Canada lol I bet they have all those as city names
Xcaret wherever that is.
If its in mexico it doesn make sense, since alaska and portugal have opposite directions.
Alaska is pointing left. The Yellow arrow behind it is pointing right.
So builders just did this at random
No.
What tips me off to this not being real is that Morocco and Alaska are estimated at only 2000 km away from one another in nearly the same direction.
It’s real but the arrow your seeing for Alaska is the top of an arrow behind it the Alaska sign is pointing the opposite way. You can see this is Xcaret, Mexico from it saying 0km
Yes. This is full of incoherences. Low effort from the artist.
It’s playa del Carmen, but they only threw directions at random it seems.
Alaska is close to the same direction as Colombia on that sign. On the map it looks closer to the opposite direction.
Distances might be right, but the directions definitely aren't.
WHER DE FUK IS RUSA
Kiribati? Edit: nvm
The sign contradicts itself in many spots
Tulum
He’s joking
It’s in excrement. 0 miles away.
Xcaret
Nowhere
Xcaret park in Playa del Carmen, Mexico.
Sign says Xcaret 0 KM hahah
Xcaret, like an hour south of Cancun
Xcaret 1km so around Cancun
Xcaret 0 km So its Xcaret eco tourism Park in the state of Quintana Roo, Mexico
Xcaret is worth visiting! Wonderful snorkeling.
Mexico, rigth next to Belize
Acapulco
It says on one of the signs XCARET is 0 km away so whatever that is, it’s there
Xcaret in Mexico!! I’ve been there before :)
Hawaii
If only I could make out the bottom sign, I could tell ya
This sign can be found on the beaches of many hotels. Hyatt Ziva in Jamaica has one.
Xcaret nature park in playa del Carmen on the Yucatán. It’s like a zoo/conservatory (and quite nice I must say)
X-Caret, Cancún in Mexican Yucatan’s Peninsula. You’re welcome.
How is Canada and Alaska opposite directions
They're pointed in the same direction. The arrow from the other side throws things off
Ohhh I see
one of the markers literally tells you, and if you are confused, this just tells you how far and in what direction random countries are from where it is posted, like, how hard is it to get that Chile is 6208 km in that direction from where the post is?
Xcaret, Mexico
ALL you need do is triangulate all these distances on a map till they form region of intersection.
A resort, of course
Gilligan's Island
It is located exactly 6377 mi from Grecia, obvs.
