Calakmul. The jewel in the jungle
As a backbone the chain of hills called Puuc in mayan crosses the Yucatan Peninsula. There, on the red and fertile land, the Maya built many of their cities and flourished for centuries.
In Uxmal, the largest and most impressive of these cities, the ancient Maya architecture reached sublime levels in an effort to communicate with the gods. In Kabah, a prayer in stone, a temple dedicated to Chaak, the god of rain and sustainer of life, rises as a silent witness of a time of splendor.
