A Maya archaeological site, Kabah is located near Uxmal and a wonderful place to see on an archaeological tour. The highlight of a tour is the Palace of Masks which is an ornate building covered with masks of the rain god Chaac. The repetition of the masks is a rare thing in Mayan art and some say it is to demonstrate the importance of water due to there being no underground cenotes, they relied on rain as a source of water.
Ik-Kil is a cenote (a natural underground reservoir of water) that is located close to Chichen Itza. It is quite possible the most spectacular and beautiful cenote in all of Mexico. On a sightseeing tour, you will need to climb 26 meters down to the waters. The water is 40 meters deep and a great place to take diving tours. According to Mayan history, these waters were sacred and human sacrificing took place to their rain god.

Ek’Balam, when translated, means Bright Star Jaguar and is another place to take an archaeological tour. As with most archaeological sites in Mexico, this site is still as work in progress, but the so far the amazing and well-preserved sculptures excavated here are exciting for everyone to see.
