"In the heart of the jungle, surrounded by lush vegetation, lies one of
the major sites of Mayan civilization, inhabited from the 6th century
B.C. to the 10th century A.D. The ceremonial centre contains superb
temples and palaces, and public squares accessed by means of ramps.
Remains of dwellings are scattered throughout the surrounding
countryside." -http://whc.unesco.org
Another UNESCO Site in Guatemala, located in Central America.
