The first item on tour was a hike in water-filled cave Cenote Ikkil. In it, as the guide, you can swim.
In general, for a given locality, these cenote – a thing quite characteristic, such as the holy sources in Russia.

Chichen Itza, Mexico attraction number 1. Well at least this place is best known among tourists.It represents
the ruins of the ancient Mayan city with a few surviving pyramids and temples. Chichen-Itza. At the main
entrance.
In the center is the Temple Kukulkan. This 9-stepped pyramid 24 meters tall with broad stairs on each side.
During the vernal and autumnal equinoxes about three o’clock in the afternoon sun’s rays illuminate the western
balustrade of the main staircase of the pyramid in such a way that light and shadow image is formed of seven
isosceles triangles that make up, in turn, the body tridtsatisemimetrovoy snakes “crawling” to the extent of
movement of the sun to own head, carved at the base of the stairs.
