Chichén Itzá Hotels and Accommodation

Immerse yourself in the Maya culture by lodging at one of the budget hotels in Chichen Itza. Chichen Itza is home to some of the ancient Mayan’s most important architecture. The Pyramid of Kukulkan is a huge pyramid that must be seen to be believed. The ancient Mayans built the pyramid in sync with the Mayan calendar. El Castillo, the castle, as the locals call the pyramid, has 91 steps leading up each of its four staircases. When added together with the top platform the number of total steps is 365, the number of days in the solar calendar. The Main Ball Court is another popular attraction. Here is where the ancient Mayans played and expended energy. The ball game consisted of getting a rubber ball in a ‘goal’ and it could become violent. Rock carvings along the sides of the court tell the story of those who have lost at the game.
