Chichen Itza ( or "At the mouth of the well of the Itza") is a large pre-Columbian archaeological site built by the Maya civilization located in the northern center of the Yucatán Peninsula. It was the third Mayan temple so far on my trip and being so close to Cancun, it was by far the most heavily touristed (is that a word?). It is also one of the seven wonders of the world, but I don´t think that it was all that. Lots of old temples, not a lot known about them so I just wandered around for a few hours, took photos and got the bus southeast on to Tulum on the Caribbean coast.
