Uxmal, once one of the most important cities and religious centers in the ancient Maya Culture is located in the Pucc Hills of the Yucatan Peninsula. A spectacular helicopter ride over the region’s rich natural landscape will be just the beginning of an adventurous and culture-filled day. The name Uxmal means ‘thrice-built’ and it refers to the construction of some of its structures on top of existing structures. Climb up the mighty Pyramid of the Magician, the tallest and most impressive building on site at 117 feet (38m) in height. Learn about the many legends that give this spectacular temple its name and the reason for its unique elliptical shape, unusual among Mayan architecture. Marvel at this city’s outstanding example of Mayan art and submerge yourself in its magical feel. After your visit, enjoy a superb lunch at the elegant Hacienda Temozón, a more modern but gorgeous architectural beauty in its own. The Pucc region and this UNESCO World Heritage site is sure to enchant you.
