Mayan Cities

This week in class we discussed the greatest Mayan cities. These included Palenque, Tikal, Copan, and Chichen Itza. The architecture in these four cities is phenomenal. It's amazing that these people could build such elaborate temples, staircases, stelae, and ball courts. This just shows you how advanced the Maya were compared to other people of their time.

Traveling to other countries is something I am very fond with. I love to see how other people live and learn about their culture. After discussing these cities in class, I did a little bit of research myself. I would love to take a trip down to see these cities. I would think it would be a great experience to actually get to see what I learned about.
