Xpujil

The popular base for exploring the region’s famous Mayan ruins has some unusual ruins of its own.

About

Today, Xpujil is a quiet village that’s a popular home base for tourists looking to explore the famous Mayan ruins dot the region. Many visitors, however, don’t know that Xpujil itself was once a thriving Mayan settlement with ruins of its own. Inhabited between the 4th and 13th centuries, most of the structures here are typical of the Classic RĆ­o Bec architectural style, including their use of ā€œfalseā€ temples, which have no feasible function. However, the dully named ā€œStructure 1ā€ is unique in the region for its three-tower construction, rather than the usual two.
