Mayan ruins deep in the jungle.
El cenote ll kil is one of thousands swimming holes in the Yucatán Peninsula. Refreshing swim but is a pretty crowded spot.
Calakmul has been my favorite mayan site, so far, and the hardest to reach.

The site is really big and its pyramids as big as the one in Chichen Itzá, covered almost completely by the jungle. It's like the mexican Angkor Wat.
