Chichen Itza: The Temple Of Kukulkan​

Considered to be one of the seven new wonders in the world, Chichen Itza was built to be dedicated to the God of Mayan. The construction of the pyramid was built in such a way that when the sun sets during the spring, the shadows of the stairs turn out as a serpent. However, the illusion looks like Slytherin and the different steps of the pyramid were built in 365 symbols referring to the days in a year. Among all the pyramids of Mexico, Chichen Itza pyramid has its own unique charm.

Location: Tinum, Yucatan, Mexico

Outstanding, Pam.
Going up those steps is not too bad BUT coming back down is a real freak out.
PS: did you know that you can also go way up inside and see a craved jade Jaguar ?
 
Sounds like you have done a lot of travel Chef. Nice photos. The last one looks like frozen waterfall, but likely not, Niagara Falls maybe?
 
Ok. The other ones proved too easy for our intelligent crowd.
Let's see what you can make of this.
I was there in March of 2007
Oh, and to make it a tad harder ... name the structureR.jpg
