The ancient Maya site of Chichén Itzá is located on Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula. The site once was one of the largest and most powerful city states of the pre-Columbian Americas.
Today, Chichén Itzá is one of the New Wonders of the World and the extraordinary El Castillo, the pyramidal structure in the main plaza of the site, is one of Chichén Itzá’s largest and most popular buildings.
