Chitzen Itza - world cultural heritage of the UNESCO

the temple of the warriors.
A good example of Maya-Toltec architecture.The lower walls of the temple,
- which may not be entered any more - and the pillar all around are decorated by
reliefs and representations of warriors and eagles who devour human hearts.
The big stairs lead up to the platform,on which a Chac Mool stature stands.
