Templo IV, Tikal
Templo IV, Tikal is a pyramid temple within the ancient Mayan city of Tikal. Built around 741 AD, it is located in the dense forest approx. 300 m west of Temple 3. Because the wooden lintel of the temple at the top is carved with a double-headed serpent, it is also known as the "Temple of the Double-Headed Serpent." It was commissioned by the Tikal ruler Yik'in Chan K'awiil to showcase his achievements. Archaeologists speculate that his tomb may be hidden beneath the pyramid, though it has yet to be discovered. The temple stands approx. 70 m tall, making it a rare, towering structure in Tikal and the entire Mayan world. Visitors can climb to the top via the wooden stairs on the back of the temple. From the platform at the top, the spires of Temple 1, Temple 2, and Temple 3 emerge from the vast forest, offering a classic view of the ancient city. The jungle scenes of the Rebel base on the planet Yavin in the movie "Star Wars" were filmed here.Tikal · 2 km from downtown

What travelers say about Tikal
乖小咪27 October 2019
5.0
Temple No. 4 in the Tikal Mayan Civilization Ruins is the highest and best-preserved building in the entire ruins. The temple stands on a four-story pyramid, is rectangular, and is about 200 square meters. It is high above and has a very wide view. It must have been the place where important sacrificial ceremonies were held in the past, and it had an important theocratic status.

Semuc champey is similar to Jiuzhaigou, but the difference is that you can experience the water and explore a nearby cave. It is very interesting and I recommend it to everyone.
