Come and discover Chacchoben, the largest Mayan settlement in the Los Lagos region. And also enjoy the sun and the Mexican beaches in a formidable tour.

According to the current settlers who still speak the Mayan language, the toponym of Chacchoben refers to the "Colorado Corn", although its original name is unknown. The ancient settlement had its origin more than 2,000 years ago, and the ruins that can be enjoyed today give us a very reliable idea of how this Mayan town that occupied about 70 hectares of surface developed. In addition, its fascinating environment gives the city an unparalleled magic: toucans, songbirds or iguanas live among incredible areas of fig trees, zapote and mahogany.

Departure of the Excursion.

Tour of the site, where you will see:

• The Great Basamento: It must have been the main scene of ceremonial activities, both religious and secular. On one of the stairs that allow access, Monument 1 was erected, which seems to have functioned as a marker of calendrical dates associated with the equinoxes and solstices, most likely indicating the beginning of agricultural periods.
• The Set of Tracks: It is believed that it was the residence of the leading group. Inside you can see low masonry platforms, which had to support rooms of perishable materials.
• Group II: It has not been explored, but due to the magnitude of its buildings, and the distribution pattern it presents, it is very likely that it was used for housing and administrative activities.

One of the pyramids – surprisingly – still retains some of the original red paint on its walls. We will also see in one of the temples, a mural with the astronomical positions of the planet Venus. Those who have more energy can climb the imposing Gran Basamento, from which they will enjoy beautiful views.

After the visit of the Mayan Ruins, we will go to one of the beautiful beaches in the area, where you will have free time to swim, eat, shop, etc.

Return to the ship.
