Hacienda Kancabchén is located in the Tunkás Municipality in the state of Yucatán in southeastern Mexico.

Turn left and head north approximately 2 km to Hacienda Kancabchén.

[4] All of the henequen plantations ceased to exist as autonomous communities with the agrarian land reform implemented by President Lazaro Cardenas in 1937.

After 1937, figures indicate those living in the community, as the remaining Hacienda Kancabchén houses only the owner's immediate family.
