Palenque, México

Palenque México

Palenque is located in Chiapas and is renowned for the remnants of a Mayan city that dates back to approximately 600 to 800 CE. It was designated as a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1987. The city is adorned with numerous inscribed stone slabs, intricate bas-relief sculptures, inlaid masks, and other extraordinary decorations, giving Palenque a sense of magic and holiness. The Temple of the Inscriptions, standing at 75 feet high, houses one of the only crypts discovered within a pyramid in Mexico. Upon excavation, the Tomb of Pakal, a Mayan ruler from the 7th century, unveiled a collection of jewels, masks, jade ornaments, wall carvings, and other exquisite artifacts.
