Visit El Caracol to gain some insight into how the ancient Mayans developed such an incredibly advanced understanding of the stars. Although parts of its roof have collapsed, this beautiful building is still in very good condition. It remains one of the most famous features of the spectacular Chichén Itzá archeological site, probably the world’s best-known Mayan ruin. El Caracol is widely believed to have been an observatory of a sort, helping provide the Mayans with the astronomical knowledge that helped them structure so many of their buildings. Stand beneath this remarkable building and imagine it as it would have looked over 1,000 years ago, when it was first built and was entirely intact. See the spiral staircase that gave it its name, El Caracol, which means “snail.” The ancient Mayans are nowadays famed for the precise astronomical calculations that governed much of their architecture. El Caracol may have been the key in helping them gain such a refined understanding of the heavens, as its raised position and viewing windows suggest it was designed for observing the stars. The nearby pyramid of El Castillo was built to achieve particular effect of light and shadow during the spring equinox. Likewise, the construction of El Caracol appears to have been guided by the stars and planets. Notice how its high tower rises above the canopy of the jungle and provides a clear view of the heavens, unobstructed by trees. Look for the viewing windows, some of the building’s most remarkable features. These windows are perfectly positioned to match the journey of Venus as it moved across the sky. This planet had particular significance for the Mayans as it represented one of their war gods. Pay the entrance fee to Chichén Itzá and visit El Caracol, which is a short walk from the impressive El Castillo pyramid, the centerpiece of the archeological site. Join a guided tour to hear the fascinating relationship between the Mayans and the stars explained in great depth. ## Plan a trip to see El Caracol Price found within the past 48 hours.
