This picture is of a smaller ruined city half an hour south of Uxmal, but much of it remains to be excavated and restored. In fact, in this picture, I was facing a huge pyramid-type building, probably a mile away or so, at least as big as the one at Uxmal. There was a road parallel to the road we took from Uxmal to this city, and parts of it are still intact. So I imagine this area in central Yucatan was the place to be when these cities were inhabited. Seriously, you have to see it to believe it.
