Option 1. Uxmal & Kabah
Your first stop will be Uxmal, known to many by way of legend, myth or anecdote. It is situated within a series of hills known as the Puuc or “mountainous area” in Maya. The name was later given to describe the architectural style of the región, such as the colossal Magicians Pyramid, impressive Governor’s Palace, intricate Dove´s Temple and Grand Nuns Quadrangle.
The archaeological structures and buildings located throughout Uxmal are ornamented with geometrical figures and masks of the rain god, Chaac. The rain god was considered by the Maya people as one of the most important of their deities.
Have lunch at the beautiful Hacienda Uxmal. Meal is based on a House selection menu.
Next, visit Kabah, a Puuc-style city that flourished around the year 800 AD. Kabah is known as the second largest religious center in the Puuc-style. Puuc is the name given to a series of low-lying hills with unique culture and style.

Uxmal is a United Nations World Heritage site. The Pre-Hispanic city was built amidst rolling hills. The Governor’s Palace, The Pyramid and the Soothsayer and the Nun’s Quadrangle are some of the buildings that will capture your imagination with their splendor.
At its height, Uxmal was home to about 25,000 Mayas. Like other Puuc región sites, the city flourished from 600-1000 AD. The name Uxmal means “thrice-built” in the Mayan language, referring to the many layers of construction of its most imposing structure.
Uxmal was considered by Architect Frank Lloyd Wright to be the supreme expression of art in architecture in Mesoamerica.
