<P>Sooo...cause of our jet leg we woke up very early and after a lil breackfast we left the hotel and made our way to Chechen-Itza!<BR>To find the right highway was not that easy but after asking several ppl we finally found it!:D</P>
<P>Chichen-Itza i guess&nbsp;are the most knowen Maya Ruins, since you can reach then easily from Cancun.<BR>We wandered around and red the stuff in our travel guide book...but i somehow wasnt very ipressed by those ruins...have seen some bigger once, but that comes later:P!</P>
<P>We took some great pics of the ruins with us in the middle and once again i was wodering how they've built all this stuff by not having the help like we do nowadays!<BR>The main pyramid which is a highlight at 21. march when srping starts and the shadow makes it look like 2 snakes come down the steps was a cool thing to see...when you clapp your hands infront of it its sounds very strange like someone is clapping back(but not like an echo!).</P>
<P>Well we got fed up of the international tourism there and drove feather to Merida...our next station...<BR>I loved the way there with the empty, just long straight street which seemed never ending!</P>

Our next stop was to the famous Mayan ruins and pyramids known as Chichen Itza. This restored Mayan site is one of the 7 Modern Wonders of the World. This photo was taken from a Mayan sports field in view of its largest pyramid and some lovely Mayan sculpture.<BR></p>

The ruins at Chichen-Itza were absolutely amazing.&nbsp; It was quite a trip into the interior of the Yucatan peninsula, but it was definitely worth it.&nbsp; On the other hand, the vendors at the site were incredibly annoying.&nbsp; People won't leave you alone, trying to sell you stupid little trinkets while you're trying to take in the scenery.&nbsp; I really wish they had been banned from entering the park.&nbsp; Since the hurricanes two years ago and a fatal fall, you can't climb the pyramid anymore, but I doubt I would have made it up those steep steps in that intense heat and humidity, especially with a fear of heights.&nbsp; The only other downside was that we were not provided with a map of the site and, therefore, we missed out on visiting two of the major ruins.&nbsp; Still, what we did see was great.&nbsp; I don't think I would take the long and incredibly hot trip out there again, but I am definitely grateful that&nbsp;we did go at all.&nbsp; Well, I might go again in order to check out the two ruins that we missed.</p>

<P>Amazing ruins site, best seen with a guide for at least the first few hours, then go wondering by yourself.&nbsp; Best early in the morning or late afternoon to get those elusive photos without people in them.<A href="http://www.mysteriousplaces.com/mayan/images2/warriors.JPG"><IMG height=344 src="http://www.mysteriousplaces.com/mayan/images/warriors.JPG" width=243 border=0></A></P>
