the pyramid of Kukulkan
Between 12:00 and 17:00 the bordering wall of the northern stairs, changes in the
interplay of light and shade, to a snaky body, which seems to wind down the pyramid.
Only 20 years ago this phenomenon was discovered, which is visible one week. It proves
once more the high status of the pre-Columbian astronomy.
