Balamku

Discovered in 1990, this spectacular site with its remarkable stucco facade - 56 feet long and 13 feet high -  really gives a complete impression of how these cities looked 1500 years ago.   

Nadzcaan

Nadzcaan is just opened to the public and a real find of a site for the adventurer who likes to get off the beaten track - lots of plazas, pyramids, and jungle.  Almost guaranteed, no other tourists!    

Kohunlich

Its tropical setting, huge ball court, many plazas and residential areas, and six masks of the sun god Kinichna make this a truly memorable site.    

Dzibanche

A little off the main route, but a beautiful city with lots of good architecture, many plazas and lots of quiet.    

Kinichna

1 km from Dzibanche, Kinichna is a small site but worth the time if you are in the area.
