Kohunlich Mayan Ruins

Journey back in time — deep into a dense, secluded jungle — to explore the vast ancient Mayan city of Kohunlich, complete with temples, palaces, lush gardens and even ball courts. Spend two-and-a-half hours unveiling the rich history of these illustrious Mayan people on a guided tour of the ruins and their breathtaking surroundings. As you make your way around, notice the varied architecture, including dwellings of the Kohunlich elite, and magnificent stone masks nearly 10 feet tall carved along the pyramid-shaped temple stairways of Templo de los Mascarones (Temple of the Masks), built in honor of their sun god. Some of the original red paint remains on the masks — imagine what the towering pyramid and masks must have looked like in their heyday, covered in red, more than 1,000 years ago. Also explore the broad plazas, including a massive, raised acropolis; Plaza of the Estelas (tall sculpted stone monuments); and Plaza Hundida and Plaza Merwin.
