Chichen Itza was a major focal point of the Mayans in the Yucatan
Peninsula in Mexico from
the Late Classic (c. AD 600–900) through
the Terminal Classic (c.
AD 800–900) and into the early portion of the
Postclassic period (c. AD
900–1200).
The site exhibits a multitude of architectural styles,
The town of Chichen-Itza was established close to two natural
cavities (cenotes or chenes),
which gave
the town its name "At the edge of the well of the Itzaes".
Chichen
Itza was one of the largest Maya cities.
Chichen Itza was the most crowded of all the ruins that I visited in
Central America in April-May 2019.
