Journey through Time and Uncover the Wonders of the Mayan Empire with Things to Do in Chichen Itza

Chichen Itza is one of the New Seven Wonders of the World, and it's easy to see why. The ancient city was built by the Mayans around 600 AD and was one of the largest and most prosperous cities of its time. There are as many Chichen Itza tourist attractions as structures and architectural marvels, including the Temple of Kukulcan, the Great Ball Court, and the Observatory.

The Temple of Kukulcan, also known as El Castillo, is a highlight of Chichen Itza. This iconic structure is a massive pyramid built in honor of the feathered serpent god, Kukulcan. The pyramid has 91 steps on each of its four sides, with the top platform making 365 steps in total, representing the number of days in a year. During the spring and fall equinoxes, the sun casts a shadow that looks like a serpent descending down the side of the pyramid.

The Great Ball Court is another incredible structure at Chichen Itza. This massive ball court is the largest in Mesoamerica, measuring over 500 feet in length and featuring walls that are 27 feet tall. The game played here, known as pok-ta-pok, was a sacred ritual and involved players hitting a rubber ball with their hips and trying to score points by getting the ball through small stone hoops on the court walls. The game was often accompanied by human sacrifice, making it a deeply significant ritual for the Mayans.

A Feast for Your Senses: Ik Kil Cenote and More

One of the unique things to do in Chichen Itza is the opportunity to visit the nearby cenote Ik Kil. This natural sinkhole was once a sacred site for the Mayans, who believed it to be a gateway to the underworld. Today, visitors can swim in the crystal-clear waters and admire the stunning rock formations that surround it. The cenote is a refreshing break from the heat and humidity of the Yucatan Peninsula and is one of the many Chichen Itza tourist attractions.

In addition to cenote Ik Kil, our tour Chichen Itza also offer the opportunity to explore other sites of interest in the area. Visitors can discover the historic city of Valladolid, founded in the 16th century by the Spanish conquistadors. This charming city is known for its stunning architecture and vibrant cultural scene, with numerous museums, galleries, and theaters to explore.

Another things to do in Chichen Itza tours is the town of Izamal, known as the "Yellow City" due to its colorful colonial buildings. Izamal is home to a massive Franciscan monastery, built on the site of a former Mayan temple. The monastery is an impressive example of colonial architecture and is a testament to the rich history and culture of the Yucatan Peninsula.
