Secure your entrance to the archaeological site of Palenque and embark on a journey back in time to uncover the remarkable heritage and ways of life of the Maya civilization.

Description

This ticket grants you the opportunity to delve into the ancient city of Lakam Ha', with roots tracing back to the 3rd century BC. Explore the expansive grounds and impressive architecture that reveal the ingenuity of the Maya.

After experiencing multiple conflicts, Lakam Ha' fell into neglect and obscurity, as the encroaching jungle reclaimed the majestic temples. It wasn't until centuries later that explorers rediscovered this hidden jewel amidst the verdant wilderness. Today, it stands as a stunning illustration of Maya urban design and construction.

Within the archaeological site of Palenque, you will encounter a plethora of intriguing monuments, including the impressive Temple of the Inscriptions, a towering stepped pyramid that reaches nearly 25 meters (82 feet) in height, serving as the final resting place of the Maya ruler K'inich Janaab' Pakal.

Your exploration of the archaeological zone of Palenque will also lead you to other significant structures, such as the Temple of the Cross, the Temple of the Sun, the Temple of the Skull, and the renowned Tomb of the Red Queen. At the Great Palace, you can appreciate intricately carved reliefs and discover the tower where priests once observed the sunset, all surrounded by a breathtaking lush natural jungle.
