The old Mayatown of Palenche have some
very beautiful temples. It was a sensation when they discovered
the grave of King Pakal inside the the largest pyramide. Later
they found graves in two other temples too. I catched some nice
details from various temples, showing the magnificent carvings
they did into stone with the material they had at hand, and I am
very impressed.
