Folks, you can't see one without seeing two--they face each other. There is nothing like it in the world. They are magnificent, don't die before you see them. Five weeks after back surgery I climbed Temple two--would have done Temple one but they wouldn't let me--they were working on the steps. Both are in the central acropolis and any way... More

Temple II sits opposite of Temple I on the Great Plaza. You can climb about half way up. The steps are wooden and steep, there is a platform half way up if you need to take a while to rest.

This was our first trip to a Mayan site and we were not disappointed. The entire complex is huge, and this Temple is definitely one of the highlights. Our teenage nephews really enjoyed this site, as did all of us adults. More

It is like being in a movie or in a graphic novel that grasps a lost age. This wonder is too incredible for words. Anyone who has been here can tell you that pictures do not do this place justice, one must experience this up close. I would recommend this to anyone. More

Temple II sits opposite of Temple I on the Great Plaza, and unlike Temple I you can climb a wooden staircase about halfway up Temple II to a platform that has an awesome view of the Plaza. It's an easy climb up, and when we visited in February of 2009 we spent a good 20 minutus up here... taking great... More
