The Mayan Chichen Itza is off course undoubtedly the most famous tourist destination. However, there are a few other ruins that must be visited. They are
Ancient Mayan Tulum
- It is believed to be one of the most important ceremonial centers of the Mayans
- It dates back to more than the 17th C
- It was a major Mayan trade center too
- The temple of Dior was built here
Ancient Mayan ALMA'S LSD Tour
This is a religious tour of the Book of Mormons. It ends up being cheaper than the buses going to different places. It is a unique company in Cancun and Tulum. It is, however mostly for the religious.
Tulum and Xel ha
There is also usually a Tulum and Xel Ha all day trip that is usually conducted. It is by bus and not too expensive either.
Coba
- It is another Mayan site, not yet fully reclaimed from the jungle
- It is, however, a favourite with the adventurous sort as it is in the heart of the jungle
- Its architecture, surprisingly, is very similar to the Guatamaelan city Tikal
- It is not as well developed and restored as the Chichen Itza site so visitors will be well warned to carry bug spray along with them when visiting!
