Poza Rica (formally-Poza Rica de Hidalgo) is a city and its surrounding municipality in the Mexican state of Veracruz. Its name means rich pool, because it was a place known for its abundance of fish. In this century oil was discovered in the area. It has since been almost completely extracted. This resulted in the decline of oil well exploration and drilling activities but there are many oil refineries.
Poza Rica is close to the Costa Esmeralda, the northern beaches of Veracruz, such as Tecolutla, Tuxpan, Cazones and Playa Esmeralda and because of its hotel and metropolitan infrastructure it is convenient for staying in a comfortable city. The UNESCO World Heritage Site of El Tajin is 15 kilometers (9.3 mi) away.
