Here's a Cenote we went swimming in before the trip. Cenote means underground cave...
Here's Cenote Segrado (Sacred Cenote) from Chichen Itza
And the main temple, the temple of Kulkulkan or El Castillo. This is a time temple... Despite the fact that this temple was completed in 250 AD... It's staircases face north, south, east, and west. Magnetic north even! Think about it... they KNEW about magnetic north back in 250 AD... The Mayans were known to be crazy good @ math...
On the spring equinox and fall equinox... The sun reflecting on the staircases makes a "snake" made out of light triangles creep up/down the staircase... Respectively. I'm going to go now whilst you think about that....
