chiapas travel intro BONAMPAK » PICTURES

Click image to enlarge.

 

Bonampak is not a large site at all. What has made it popular is a group of murals, which are in relatively good condition.

These paintings have apparently not been reworked and lay as-is. You are prohibited to photograph the paintings which all exist in a single construction. There is a stele in front of the building and another grouping of temples near by.

Ruta Puuc

Within the heart of the Yucatan lay a circuit of ruins which have come to be known as the Ruta Puuc (Puuc Route). These sites are the finest examples of the Puuc architecture style. Sites that make up the route are: Uxmal, Kabah, Sayil, Labna, Xlapak, Oxkintok, Xul, Chamultun, Bakna, and Kiuic.
