I'm about to go to the pyramid|But the first time did not leave to Egypt

|But the first time did not leave to Egypt.✓First of all, strongly push 'Revelation' if you like Mayan culture ✓Uxmal is the first stop of the Puuc Route ✓It's also the first time I've climbed a pyramid in my life 【Uxmal】 The meaning in Mayan is 'three times construction', in fact, Uxmal has been built five times to reach today's scale. Uxmal was built in AD 600 and was abandoned until AD 900. The preliminary judgment is drought, because the local water shortage was considered when it was built, so there are a large number of reservoirs Chultun in the ruins. After Uxmal was abandoned, the Xiu Dynasty moved the administrative center to Mani, 50 kilometers to the east. There is a small town nearby called Mani. 【House of the Sorcerer】Casa del Adivino Also called the Magician's Pyramid, it is 39 meters high and is a rare elliptical section. It is said to have been built by the high priest overnight. 【Quadrangle of the Nuns】Cuadrangulo de las Monjas You can see the rain god Chaac with a curled nose and glaring eyes in every corner. But experts still can't guess what this building with 74 rooms is for. 【Feathered Serpent】Kukulkan The gorgeous exterior walls all have the appearance of the feathered serpent god. The Totonac of the Mexican plateau and the Mayan feathered serpent god Kukulkan or Quetzalcoatl. Totonac in Mayan Nahuatl dialect means 'People of hot land' Quetzalcoatl 'Feathered Serpent God Kukulkan' also comes from the Mayan Nahuatl dialect, Quetzlli green feathers, Coatl means snake 【Governor's Palace】Palacio del Gobernador The Governor's Palace is also known as the 'Ruler's Palace', I think it is the most beautiful in the Uxmal ruins, after the House of the Sorcerer, the most representative is the magnificent relief exterior wall that is one hundred meters long. Mayan scholar Michael D Coe called the Governor's Palace the most superb architecture and the peak of Puuc style. The whole brick wall plus the broken brick relief base layer, smeared with limestone thin brick, plus cement repair, full of stylized and symbolic rain god Chaac, scroll decoration, geometric design and so on. 【Great Pyramid】Gran Piramide Only the north side has been repaired, the other sides are all unbearable dirt slopes, further west is the group of tombs, but they have not been repaired. 【Dovecote】El Palomar Standing on top of the Great Pyramid, you can see the Dovecote to the west, 9 arches like a Catholic church bell tower, standing on the hillside, it is said to have been a small part of a square building. 【Turtle House】Casa de las tortugas The northwest corner of the platform under the Governor's Palace (Ruler's Palace) is the Turtle House, named for the image of the rain god Chaac turning into a turtle on the eaves. In Mayan mythology, when people encounter drought, turtles also suffer from drought and will pray for rain to the rain god Chaac.
