Introduction

There is an ancient religious city about 130 kilometers away from Cancun in the Caribbean Sea, surrounded by a 3.3-meter-high stone wall. The buildings in the city are all made of stones with carved patterns and designs. This city witnessed the prosperity of the Mayan culture in the late 14th century, and can be said to be one of the best preserved ancient cities of the Mayan and Toltec people in Mexico.
