News in Tulum
Traveling to the Mexican Caribbean offers you incredible views, but also allows you to approach one of the most enigmatic ancient cultures that don't cease to amaze experts for their knowledge and architecture.
Mayas where a culture that takes advantage of every benefit that mother nature offers them. They built cities that survived the pass of the years. One of these magical cities is Cobá, one of the most important ceremonial centers of this civilization
It is believed that the growth of this city improved thanks to its privileged location, between 5 lakes and numerous cenotes. You will get into a pretty natural jungle landscape, unlike the ruins of Tulum or Chichen Itza these ruins have not been explored or restored, so many of its buildings are still covered by the jungle.
You can admire large engraved stones on which they carved their astronomical knowledge and aspects of the king's life. In this city, you can find one of the largest "Estela" stone monuments where the Mayans announce “the end of the world” or a new account for their calendar during December 2012.
During your visit, dare to climb the great "Nohoch Mul" pyramid, a 42 meters height building, that hides a delight for all travelers, after climbing 120 steps to the top you will discover its ornate temple and one of the most impressive views of the Mayan jungle.
We highly recommend to do this tour on bike, so you can enjoy the roads and passages between the jungle; due to its proximity to Tulum, we suggest to schedule two archaeological walks on one day or complement with a "cenote" visit.
