China to be honored guest at 35th Festival Cervantino in Guanajuato
Experience fall equinox in Chichen
Itza this September
Tourists from all over the world travel
to Yucatan to experience the “shadow of the moving serpent” during
the spring and fall equinox at the Kukulkan Pyramid
in Chichen Itza, an experience so unique it deserves
a spot on your “must see” list.
On September 21st, you too can observe how the sunset and the location of the
pyramid allows for the shadow of the serpent to move down the pyramid steps
until it reaches the serpent’s head at the bottom, an event that shows
the great astronomers and mathematicians that the Mayans were.
Chichen Itza
is open to the public seven days a week, from 8 a.m. until 5 p.m. at a cost of
$111 pesos (roughly $11 dollars). You can also enjoy the light and sound show
at night - another truly enjoyable experience at this archeological site.
Those interested in visiting Chichen
Itza can pre-book their tours from as far as Cancun and Riviera
Maya, yet those wishing to be closer can enjoy Yucatan’s
capital city of Merida, or simply stay just
minutes away from the archeological site in the municipality of Tinum.
