What You'll Discover With Private Transportation to Chichen Itza
History of the Mayan Ruins at Chichen Itza
Once a Mayan city on Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula, Chichen Itza has become an important archeological site. Discoveries made here reveal details of Mayan culture and the society's many accomplishments. Experts have estimated that the Mayan city of Chichen Itza was built between the early 400s A.D. and the mid 5th century. Due to its remarkable architecture, this fascinating Mayan structure was named one of the new seven wonders of the world in 2007. Since then, nearly 2 million tourists visit the site each year.
More Than a Pyramid
Although the Pyramid of Kukulkan is the site's most recognized attraction, Chichen Itza has much more to offer. The 740-acre site of Mayan ruins features several astonishing stone buildings used by the Mayans for nearly 1000 years. Among these fascinating structures are The Great Ball Court, The Temple of Warriors, The Tomb of Chacmool, a Sacred Cenote, and much more.
Pro-tip: With so much to see here, you'll want to spend a full day exploring the site's distinct areas. Private tours and guided tours are the best way to learn about everything from sacred rituals to the Mayan empire's downfall.
The Feathered Serpent
Perhaps one of the most fascinating features of the world-famous site is the feathered serpent that appears on the Pyramid of Kukulkan at sunset twice per year. During the spring and fall equinox, the snake can be observed along the pyramid's northern edge. The creature's head is made of stone and is permanently located at the base of the pyramid. Meanwhile, the body is created by a combination of light and shadows that are only achieved during an equinox.
Pro-tip: For the ultimate Chichen Itza experience plan your visit to the Pyramid of Kukulkan on the dates of the spring and fall equinoxes, March 20th and September 22nd, respectively.
