Chichen Itza is a city built by the Maya, an ancient native people from the Yucatan Peninsula. Although the exact dates of origin are debated, most agree that Chichen Itza has existed for more than 1,500 years.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

<\/span><\/p>

As one of the biggest cities of its kind, this archeological site was a central point of the Maya world from the Late Classic period (AD 600-900) into the early part of the Postclassic period (AD 900-1200).<\/span><\/p>

Nowadays, Chichen Itza\u2019s Mayan ruins are recognized all over the world for their historical relevance. As well as being a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it\u2019s also one of the new seven wonders of the world.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Chichen Itza<\/a> sees millions of tourists each year and is one of the most visited archaeological sites in all of Mexico. For a country with such a rich culture and history, this is an impressive feat.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

The first thing is, of course, the incredible architecture. El Castillo may be the most famous part of the ruins, but there\u2019s a lot more on offer. The detailed carving of La Iglesia (the church) are some of the oldest examples of the Maya people\u2019s stonework abilities. And, the spherical dome of El Caracol, where Mayan astronomers observed the sun and stars, is an impressive sight to behold.<\/span><\/p>

<\/span><\/p>

Many historians think that Chichen Itza became an important location for the Maya people because of its proximity to the Xtoloc cenote, a source of freshwater. The site can (and should) be visited as part of a trip to Chichen Itza to appreciate its significance to the Maya people as well as to see the beautiful Xtoloc Temple.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Sacred Cenote is the largest in the area and arguably the most important. This site is also visit-worthy for its fascinating history of religious practices including human sacrifices.<\/span><\/p>

Ik Kil is the closest cenote to Chichen Itza and is the perfect place to cool off after a morning exploring the Mayan ruins. This natural underground watering hole is one of the most spectacular in the entire region and is surrounded by lush vegetation that is very Instagrammable.<\/span><\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
