Mexico Travel Guía

Chichen Itzá is one of the biggest cultural legacies of Mexico belonging to the Mayan period. The most well-known pyramid is an ancient Mayan calendar. In the spring equinocios and autumn, it is possible to observe a snake, given the game of light and shades that the Sun projects on the pyramid. A really magic place.

Its name means literlmente “Mouth of the Well of the Itzaes”. It is a question of a place where they emerge many of the secrets of the Mayan calendar. The settlers of the first establishment were pure Mayan. Towards the end of the IXth century, the city remained left by unknown causes, and later it was invfadido for toltecas. By the whole deposit there can be observed so much effigies of Chac (the Mayan god of the rain) and that of Quetzalcóatl, the adorned with feathers snake. A place that, undoubtedly, moves you to remote times.

During the spring equinocios and autumn, it is possible to "observe" the figure of a snake that climbs or descends for one of the sides from the main pyramid known as the "Castle". Although the large number of the people who congregates to visit it, does that muhcas times it is impossible to see it. Another option is to come to the place the days later to the equinocio, since the phenomenon can be contemplated of equal way and the people will not bother us so much.
