You will visit the famous archaeological site, lost in the jungle - Ek Balam (translated from the Mayan language "black jaguar"), where you will see the mysterious sculpture "angels" who guard the entrance to the "kingdom of the dead" in the form of the mouth of a rattlesnake.

Later you will swim in a beautiful cenote with crystal clear water, surrounded by exotic plants and magical singing of wild birds. It's a natural pit, or sinkhole, resulting from the collapse of limestone bedrock that exposes groundwater underneath. Especially associated with the Yucatán Peninsula of Mexico, cenotes were sometimes used by the ancient Maya for sacrificial offerings. Cenote water is often very clear, as the water comes from rain water filtering slowly through the ground, and therefore contains very little suspended particulate matter.
