    99% of tourists who come to Cancun will choose to check in at the New 7 Wonders of the World! It takes about 2 and a half hours to drive from Cancun Hotel to Chichen Itza to learn about the past and present of the Mayan ruins. There are many souvenir stalls around, which can be given to relatives and friends. It is recommended that tourists snorkel in the surrounding Mayan patios in the afternoon. The clear river water will relax you! For more travel needs in Mexico, please consult me. [Note] It is very hot in Chichen Itza. There is basically no shade. Tourists should pay attention to sun protection and prepare sunglasses and umbrellas. Please bring your own swimsuit and swimming equipment for snorkeling. Changing rooms are provided.

    Great little visit. It's actually right next to Chichen Itza so there's a lot to see. Would recommend going early to avoid the crowds and heat. Bring cash if you want to buy souvenirs

    The Plaza of the Thousand Columns is a large Mayan site in Chichen Itza. Although the number of columns is a bit exaggerated, there are more than 100 stone columns. It used to be a sacrificial site and is very mysterious. The columns are arranged very closely, giving people a sense of density and a solemn and oppressive feeling.
