Brits in Cancun offer you this Spectacular trip to
one of the New Seven Wonders of the World, the Kukulcan
Pyramid. Probably the most famous site in Mexico. Although
excavations have been going on at this most famous Mayan
site for over 100 years now, archaeologists can still
only speculate about what happened here and why.
 Archaeologists
from all over the world consider the Mayan civilization
to be the most advanced for its time, and they are credited
with the invention of the number zero, one of the most
innovative inventions for the mathematical world.
The architectonic buildings of the Chichen Itza complex
cover a surface of 15 kms. The most outstanding is the
temple of the God, Kukulcan, a monumental pyramid featuring
four ornamental facades of beautiful relief carved figures.
At this building during the equinox of March and September
you can observe a natural phenomena when at sundown
the shadows and light form the body of an enormous snake
or the “Feathered Serpent” descending the
stairs of the majestic pyramid.
 The
Temple of the Warriors, The Observatory, The Sacred
Cenote (water well) where countless victims were sacrificed
to ancient gods, and the Ball Game with acoustics so
great one can hear a whisper at the opposite end, are
just a few of the amazing structures of this ancient
Mayan Site.
