Description
Start your tour with a visit to the Uxmal archaeological site. Walk through the structures that highlight the Puuc style of the area and hold mysteries and legends. Next, visit the Kabah archaeological site, known as the second-largest religious center in the Puuc style. Declared a State Park since 1993, the oldest reference to this settlement is found in the Chilam Balam of Chumayel. The name Kabáh comes from the Yucatec Maya kab, meaning hand, and ah, which refers to the pronoun he. It is translated as 'The lord of the strong and powerful hand.' Enjoy a delicious traditional meal at a restaurant near Uxmal. End your tour at the Choco Story museum. Learn about the ancient history of cacao, from its origins, distribution, and uses around the world, to the ancient Maya methods of preparation.
