This is Tikal's Taj Mahal, a temple built by a king to honor his beloved queen. At 138 feet it is the shortest of all the "numbered" pyramids yet still it is 40 feet taller than El Castillo of Chichen Itza. It's a massive looking three-tier pyramid that has been meticulously restored and can be climbed by a wooden staircase accessed behind the monument. If you're with a friend climb the pyramid and have your friend stand in the middle of the plaza and check the acoustics. You can talk to each other in a normal voice and hear each other perfectly. make sure to take look at the roof comb which is very ornate and some of the sculpture is still recognizable after 1400+ years.

This is the famous "Temple II", also known as the "Temple of the Masks". It stands at the "Great Plaza" of Tikal and can be easily climbed, up to its summit at 38 meters high, through a lateral wood staircase. At its top, a shrine with three chambers, some carvings and wonderful views of the "Great Plaza" and of "Temple I", magnificently standing right in front of your eyes! The pyramid-temples are unmissable at any visit to the "Tikal National Park". Enjoy!
