More information

Visit Chichen Itza—once a significant Maya ceremonial centre, and now a destination renowned for its incredible architecture.

History

Chichén Itzá dates back to pre-Columbian times, with origins estimated around the 6th century AD. The city flourished during the Classic period (600-900 AD), becoming an important centre of Maya culture.

Highlights of Chichen Itza

Among the site's main monuments are:

  • The Temple of Kukucán: the site's most iconic structure, and one of the New Seven Wonders of the World.
  • The Grand Ball Court: largest and best-preserved playing field in Mesoamerica.
  • The Observatory: circular structure used by the Maya to study the stars and planets.

How to get there

To visit the site, we recommend booking a guided excursion from Cancún or Playa del Carmen, both of which are available with Civitatis!
