I had the pleasure of going to Tikal this weekend with some friends, and we all agreed that seeing the tops of ancient Mayan Pyramids poking through the jungle canopy at sunrise is a sight every soul should see during their lifetime...
The undisputed center of Ancient Mayan Society, Tikal sits in the heart of Guatemala’s northern rain forest – making this sacred place the home of Mayan history as well as home to hundreds of species of monkeys, toucans and parakeets.
The Tikal National Park, a protected area some 370 square kilometers, is a moving, mystical experience for visitors - highlighted by the magnificent pyramid ruins of the lost Mayan world. For years visitors from around the world have come to Tikal to transport their minds, bodies and spirits back in time while watching a new day dawn at sunrise as they are surrounded by the ancient Temples of Tikal.
