More interesting worn stairs.
"El Castillo" the central building (used for ceremonies, we are told).
The walls were covered with paintings. You can see remnants of the blue, black, and red on this protected wall.
The cornice of this building was designed to look like a face. It faced the NW corner tower. I forget what the guide said it w
More pillars. It's not clear what this thatch is protecting. Whatever it is, it is very strange looking.
This was a tomb and that rectangle was the last resting place of someone important.
They sure built pillars well. They should have built the second stories out of the same material...
Unfortunately we weren't allowed to get very close to most of the buildings to avoid damage.
This girl had won the Ms. Barcelo Contest the previous evening at our resort.
A very strange looking tree.
The main steps of "El Castillo."
Looking west from "El Castillo."
Modern steps built from "El Castillo" to the beach. All other access from this part of Tulum is pretty rugged
Modern steps 2
Looking NE from the top of the modern beach access. I don't remember that rope being there, I wonder what it's anchoring.
