Palenque,Mexico


Of all the Maya ruins, none exude the royal, palatial feel like Palenque. Perched in the hills with broad sweeping views down into the gulf plain below, one can sense the power the rulers must have felt at this location. The architecture and spatial arrangement of buildings are in harmony with the natural terrain. The structures have detailed stucco depictions of the elite and their gods. All of these factors combined with the howler monkeys and rainforest overgrowth make for a truely magical experience; especially if you get there right when they open before the tour buses and midday heat arrive.












Palenque is an archaeological site that was located on the western edge of the Maya empire in the present-day state of Chiapas, Mexico. Palenque is much smaller than some of its Mayan neighbor cities, but it contains some of the finest architecture and sculptures the Maya ever produced. Most structures in Palenque date from about 600 AD to 800 AD including the Temple of Inscriptions, the only Mesoamerican pyramid built as a funerary monument.
