Calakmul

Climbing the enormous Estructura II in Calakmul, a major Maya city (UNESCO World Heritage Site), with our excellent guide Maria Celia. Each side of the pyramid is 140m long, while its height is more than 50m above the dense jungle floor.


Above the jungle canopy. The vast Reserva de la Biosfera Calakmul 
is the second largest tropical forest (after the Amazon rainforest)
