Chichen Itza, located in Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula, is one of the most significant archaeological sites of the Maya civilization. This pre-Columbian city flourished from around 600 to 1200 CE and served as a major regional capital of the Maya empire. The site reflects the Maya's advanced understanding of astronomy, architecture, and urban planning.
The complex includes various well-preserved structures, with the stepped pyramid of El Castillo (Temple of Kukulcán) being its most recognizable monument. The site also features the Great Ball Court, the Temple of the Warriors, and the Observatory (El Caracol), each demonstrating different aspects of Maya culture and scientific knowledge.
