Welcome to the mystery of the Maya world, it is waiting for
you to discover......
The Mayas
The Mayan Civilization was the most advanced precolombian
culture with its Clasic Period from 300 to 800 A.C., (while
Europe lived in the Middle Ages). Mayans had a wide range of
knowledge of mathematical sciences, astronomy, a system of
writing by means of glyphs and a calendar more advanced that the
one we use today. They lived in the land that today is part of
southern Mexico, Guatemala, Belize and Northwest Honduras. Mayans
were magnificient artists and scientists who disappeared
completely sometime between 950 and 1100 A.C. This disappearance
is one of the more intricate mysteries of the archaeological
world. But before they lost in the sands of time they left us a
magnificent legacy of cities containing pyramids up to 200 feet
high, palaces, monoliths of stone called "estelas" with
beautiful carvings with the history of mangificent kings, wars
betwen cities, sacrifices and the gods of their religion. Those
cities were lost for centuries in the jungle, and only in the
past forty years that archeologist of all the world discovered
its secrets. These long-lost cities include: Uaxactun, Palenque,
Copan, Rio Azul, Ceibal, El Mirador, Chichen Itza, Chetumal and
the legendary Tikal.
The territory where these archeological jewels are is known today
as the Mayan Route, a international tourist project that included
hundreds of archeological sites, jungles, rivers and lakes with a
spectacular fauna of birds, monkeys and other species. They also
include beaches of incredible beauty like Cancun, Isla Mujeres
(Mexico) and the Island of San Pedro (Belize).
The Mayan Route is visited by thousands of tourists every year
looking for the mystery and the adventure in this magic land.
