  1. Dzibanché

    Though it’s a chore to get to, this site is definitely worth a visit for its secluded, semiwild nature. Dzibanché (meaning ‘writing on wood’) was a major city extending more than 40 sq km, and on the road to it you pass huge mounds covered in trees. There are a number of excavated palaces and pyramids, but the site itself is not completely excavated.

  2. Kohunlich

    The archaeological site sits on a carpeted green. The ruins, dating from both the late pre-Classic (AD 100–200) and the early Classic (AD 300–600) periods, are famous for the great Templo de los Mascarones (Temple of the Masks), a pyramid-like structure with a central stairway flanked by huge, 3m-high stucco masks of the sun god.
