Palenque » Hotels

Palenque is a gorgeous place located in the northern part of Chiapas. It comprises the central portion of the Mayan zone and boasts a remarkable cultural history due to the existence of that legendary civilization. This exceptional city is located in the middle of the forest and is one of the largest creations of this ancient people.

The city possesses an invaluable number of architectural sites that will transport you to the past including the Templo de las Inscripciones (Temple of the Inscriptions) and the Palace. Ancestral murals on the Palace show that the Mayans had created a socially and politically organized civilization with high religious, humanistic, artistic and scientific values before they ever had any contact with the western world. Other structures include the Templo de la Reina Roja (Temple of the Red Queen), the Templo de la Cruz Foliada and the Templo del Sol (Temple of the Sun).
